        The request format for this endpoint has an `application/octet-stream` body of bytes,

        and the information about the import is provided using an `Import-Metadata` header.


        Supported file types for imports are listed in [Design imports overview](https://www.canva.dev/docs/connect/api-reference/design-imports/#supported-file-types).


        <Note>


        For more information on the workflow for using asynchronous jobs, see [API requests and responses](https://www.canva.dev/docs/connect/api-requests-responses/#asynchronous-job-endpoints). You can check the status and get the results of design import jobs created with this API using the [Get design import job API](https://www.canva.dev/docs/connect/api-reference/design-imports/get-design-import-job/).
