Update your slides with new images

Are you using Omni dashboards or tiles in a Google slide deck and find that updating every single image in your slides takes forever? Check out this Zapier workflow template to update your slides programmatically from a scheduled webhook that comes from Omni :slight_smile:

A few caveats:

  • You must upload the image from the webhook payload to a publicly accessible resource like Google Drive (with public link) permissions or an s3 bucket. This is covered in steps 2 & 3 of the workflow - uploading the file and then changing the permissions. You could easily change the action to upload to another storage resource.

  • If you have to update multiple slides, I would recommend updating the workflow to manage multiple incoming webhook payloads OR set up this flow for every slide you want to update.

  • Last but not least, this is not an official Omni supported feature. Think of it more as a fun hack to workaround updating slides manually. Iā€™m more than happy to riff on it and work with you to make this template better though!_
