How do I create a Canny feedback post?
Short answer: You can create feedback post in Canny by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the Canny Create Feedback Post action to a workflow, map its 4 inputs from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.

FAQ
Questions about Create Feedback Post.
What does the Create Feedback Post action do in Canny?
Files a feature request or feedback post programmatically. Optionally attribute to a customer (creates the Canny user if not present). The standard hook for "support ticket mentions a feature gap → auto-file in Canny on the customer's behalf" workflows.
What inputs does Create Feedback Post require?
Required: Board ID, Title, Author Email. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if Canny returns an error?
The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message Canny returned, so you can fix the input and run the workflow again. Automatic retries are built into HTTP steps only, where you can also set your own retry count and delay.
Does Create Feedback Post support batch operations?
Run Create Feedback Post inside a loop to process each item in an array. TinyCommand does not throttle calls for you, so for large arrays add a Delay step if you need to stay within Canny's rate limits.
