Spotify Canvas Maker / Creator

Key point: Canvas is uploaded by artists via Spotify for Artists. This guide covers creation + uploading.

1) Create a video that matches the specs

Canvas is typically vertical 9:16 (e.g. 1080×1920) and short. Check dimensions and format requirements first: Canvas dimensions & specs.

  • Aim for a seamless loop so the start/end feel continuous.
  • Avoid heavy text/logos/CTAs; focus on mood and motion.
  • Keep important elements within a safe area (avoid edges).

2) Upload via Spotify for Artists

  1. Sign in to Spotify for Artists (you must be the artist or have access).
  2. Open the track and find the Canvas upload option.
  3. Upload the video, crop/preview if needed, then save/publish.

Availability may differ by account/region; steps can vary slightly.
