Developers Can Start Adding Their Brushstrokes to Facebook Canvas via Its API

The new API will allow developers to create solutions for advertisers using Canvas, such as in scaling creation, developing templates and delivering insights

Facebook opened up its Canvas full-screen mobile ad experiences to developers with application-programming-interface access via the Canvas Creation API, which launched Monday.

The social network said in a blog post that the new API will allow developers to create solutions for advertisers using Canvas, such as in scaling creation, developing templates and delivering insights, adding:

Canvases are built with a simple set of components that are the building blocks of the experience. We narrowed the creation experience to a minimal set of features that can create powerful and compelling creative experiences, like photo, video, text, button, header, footer, store locator and product set.
