Integration

Google Slides integration

Google Slides API for creating, reading, and editing Google Slides presentations programmatically. Create presentations, fetch the full structure of a presentation and its pages, generate page thumbnails, and apply rich batch edits - create and delete slides, insert text boxes, shapes, images, tables and charts, replace text, and update element styles. Ideal for automated deck generation, templated reports, and bulk slide updates.

The workflow builds itself.

When this happens, do that in Google Slides.Built from the 5 Google Slides tools below, on the connection you add once.

Common Google Slides use cases

building a visual gallery of slides
generating a deck from data (one slide per record)
inspecting a single slide's elements before editing
discovering slide and element objectIds before editing
generating slide decks from templates programmatically

reading slide text for processing or analysis
locating element objectIds on a specific slide
previewing a slide before sending or publishing
filling a template deck's placeholders (mail merge)

What you can do with Google Slides

Each of these is one operation on one endpoint, available both as a workflow step and as a tool an AI agent can call on its own. Nothing bundles several operations into one action, so what a run did stays readable afterwards.

Most endpoints run on the free plan. A few, mainly the ones that publish on your behalf, need a paid plan.

Presentation, 3 operations

Use Google Slides from Claude Code, Cursor or Codex

Connect Google Slides in LiveContext, create an API key in Settings, then add the LiveContext MCP server to your client. Its Google Slides operations become tools the client can call, next to every other integration you connected.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http livecontext https://livecontext.ai/mcp --header "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Codex (~/.codex/config.toml)

[mcp_servers.livecontext]
url = "https://livecontext.ai/mcp"

[mcp_servers.livecontext.http_headers]
"X-API-Key" = "YOUR_API_KEY"

Cursor, Claude Desktop and other JSON configs

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "livecontext": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://livecontext.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
