Canvas

Canvases are one of the most common objects in most app cycles. They enable Intercom to determine what your app will render, alongside how this content will be rendered. These can either be:

• Static: the given content in the canvas will remain until an action is taken to change this.
• Live: the given content in the canvas can change dynamically whenever anybody views the card. More about the Live Canvas can be found here.
