Hi,

Can we add existing visualization (like Region Map) to Canvas plugin? If not, is there any possibility to add this feature to future release of Canvas?

Thanks

That's rather a question for someone from the Canvas team. Maybe @Joe_Fleming can give some insights on that.

The plan is to be able to import existing visualizations into Canvas. It's not quite ready yet, but it's coming.
