Keep Your Team Aligned: Auto-Announce Google Slides Updates to Slack
Stop juggling tabs between Slides and Slack. When a new slide lands in your presentation, Notis posts it directly to your team channel so nothing gets missed.
Trigger
New Slide Added
Fires when a new slide is added to a Google Slides presentation.
Action
Post message to channel
Deprecated: posts a message to a slack channel, direct message, or private channel. use `send message` instead.
Why this helps
Slides pile up and teammates miss critical updates because you're switching between tools just to announce changes.
- Eliminates context switching between apps
- Ensures updates are seen by the full team
- No more chasing people to review slides
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect your Google Slides and Slack accounts to Notis (one-time setup).
- 2Open the Notis portal and create a new automation called 'Announce new slides'.
- 3Enter the plain-language prompt: 'When a new slide is added to my presentation, post a message to #team-updates announcing it.'
- 4Choose 'New Slide Added' as the trigger and select your team channel for run reports.
- 5Test by adding a slide to your presentation—you should see a message in Slack within seconds.
Questions about this workflow
Will this spam the channel if I add slides quickly?
Notis posts once per new slide. If you batch-add slides, you'll see multiple messages, but only one per slide—not duplicates.
Can I customize the announcement message?
Yes. In your automation prompt, describe what information matters—title, creator, summary, link—and Notis will include it.
Can I exclude certain presentations?
Mention specific presentation names in your prompt, and Notis will only trigger for those decks.
