How to connect Google Chat and Google slides
Create a New Scenario to Connect Google Chat and Google slides
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Google Chat, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Google Chat or Google slides will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Google Chat or Google slides, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Google Chat Node
Select the Google Chat node from the app selection panel on the right.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Google Chat, Google slides, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Google Chat and Google slides integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Google Chat and Google slides (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Google Chat and Google slides
Google Chat + Google Slides + Google Calendar: When a new message is posted in Google Chat, a new presentation is created in Google Slides. Then, a Google Calendar event is created to schedule a presentation of the slides.
Google Slides + Google Chat + Google Forms: When a new presentation is created in Google Slides, the presentation is shared in a Google Chat space. A Google Forms is used to get feedback on the presentation.
