I know it will work in one shot mode on a DSLR, I can't get it to work in anymode on a mirror less camera. I was wondering if a special flash is needed
Unfortunately, even if the AF grid beam worked, it wouldn't help in terms of acquiring focus with a mirrorless camera (regardless of the brand, ie this is not a canon thing). Same thing happens with Sony, Nikon, Fuji, etc because the AF grid beam is specifically designed to work with the off-chip AF sensor on a DSLR. This is one of the reasons why I keep my DSLRs for event work specifically.
You're not doing anything wrong, it's just a limitation with mirrorless technology right now. Some wedding photographers that use only mirrorless cameras work around this by using constant LEDs, but obviously that introduces issues in terms of candids as you're shining a blinding light into their eyes.
