Update a Convolo backstory from a new slide

Publish narrative revisions as soon as they are approved.

Trigger

New Slide Added

Fires when a new slide is added to a Google Slides presentation.

Action

Update Character Backstory

Tool to update a character's backstory. Use when you need to modify the backstory of an existing character after confirming its ID. Only the provided fields will be updated.

Why this helps

Backstory edits remain stuck in review decks and never reach the live character.

  • Apply approved narrative changes quickly
  • Preserve a clear review to update path
  • Avoid retyping long backstories

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Slides and Convolo ai in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation for approved backstory slides.
  • 3Tell Notis to update only the provided backstory fields for the referenced character.
  • 4Choose New Slide Added and a report channel.
  • 5Test with a slide containing a character ID and revised backstory.

Questions about this workflow

Will unspecified fields change?

The update action changes only the fields you provide.

Can this handle a full replacement backstory?
