Easy Tech TutsHow to Add music in Canva Website Easily 2026
By Impran M N
Canva websites don't support autoplaying background audio out of the box, but you can still give visitors an interactive way to listen to music through an embedded player. This guide shows how to use Canva's Apps library to add a Spotify, SoundCloud, or custom media player widget to your published site.
01Copy your track's share link
Grab the public sharing URL for your song or playlist from Spotify, SoundCloud, or another audio host.
02Open the Canva Apps library
From your active website workspace, navigate to the Apps section in the sidebar.
03Use the Embeds tool
Launch the built-in Embeds utility and paste your audio track's link into the input field.
04Position the audio player widget
Resize and place the multimedia player neatly inside your page's grid sections.
05Adjust surrounding layout
Fine-tune the spacing and margins around the player so it fits naturally with the rest of your design.
06Publish and test playback
Publish your website and confirm the audio player controls work correctly on the live page.
Frequently asked questions
Will the music autoplay when visitors land on my site?
No, embedded audio players require a visitor to click play — Canva websites don't support autoplaying background tracks.
Can I upload my own audio file instead of using Spotify?
The Embeds tool is built for linking external audio hosts and streaming platforms rather than uploading raw audio files directly.
Will the player look the same on mobile?
The widget resizes with your layout grid, so it's worth previewing your site on mobile to confirm placement looks right.
Do I need a Canva Pro plan to embed audio?
The Apps library and Embeds tool are generally accessible on Canva website projects, though feature availability can vary by plan.
