How to connect Google Cloud Storage and Google slides
Create a New Scenario to Connect Google Cloud Storage 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 Cloud Storage, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Google Cloud Storage or Google slides will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Google Cloud Storage or Google slides, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

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

Configure the Google Cloud Storage
Click on the Google Cloud Storage node to configure it. You can modify the Google Cloud Storage URL and choose between DEV and PROD versions. You can also copy it for use in further automations.
Add the Google slides Node
Next, click the plus (+) icon on the Google Cloud Storage node, select Google slides from the list of available apps, and choose the action you need from the list of nodes within Google slides.

Authenticate Google slides
Now, click the Google slides node and select the connection option. This can be an OAuth2 connection or an API key, which you can obtain in your Google slides settings. Authentication allows you to use Google slides through Latenode.
Configure the Google Cloud Storage and Google slides Nodes
Next, configure the nodes by filling in the required parameters according to your logic. Fields marked with a red asterisk (*) are mandatory.
Set Up the Google Cloud Storage and Google slides Integration
Use various Latenode nodes to transform data and enhance your integration:
- Branching: Create multiple branches within the scenario to handle complex logic.
- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.
- Iteration: Process arrays of data when needed.
- Code: Write custom code or ask our AI assistant to do it for you.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Google Cloud Storage, 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 Cloud Storage and Google slides integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Google Cloud Storage 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 Cloud Storage and Google slides
Google Cloud Storage + Google Slides + Google Sheets: When a new presentation file is uploaded to Google Cloud Storage, this automation retrieves its metadata and adds a new row to a specified Google Sheet, recording details like file name and upload date for tracking slide usage.
Google Cloud Storage + Google Slides + Slack: Upon uploading a new slide deck to Google Cloud Storage, this automation sends a notification to a designated Slack channel, informing the team about the new file and providing a link for quick access and review.
