Stage new slides for reuse
Create one temporary source file that can power several conversion decisions.
Trigger
New Slide Added
Fires when a new slide is added to a Google Slides presentation.
Action
Upload File (Multipart)
Tool to upload a file via multipart/form-data. use when you need to store a file on convertapi's servers (up to 3 hours) and obtain a fileid for subsequent conversions.
Why this helps
Repeatedly uploading the same slide for different outputs wastes time and creates duplicate files.
- Uploads the source once
- Supports multiple downstream actions
- Reduces duplicate transfer work
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Slides and Convertapi in Notis.
- 2Create an automation instructing Notis to upload each new slide export and report the reusable file ID for later conversions.
- 3Pick New Slide Added as the trigger.
- 4Choose a report channel and test with one slide.
