Google Slides
API to read, write, and format Google Slides presentations.
About Google Slides
The Google Slides API is a REST service, reachable at slides.googleapis.com, for reading and writing Google Slides presentations. It exposes methods to create a blank presentation, retrieve the latest version of a presentation, and apply batch updates to a presentation's content. A separate set of methods operates on individual pages within a presentation, allowing retrieval of a specific page and generation of a thumbnail image URL for a page.
Google provides client libraries for Browser, Go, Java, .NET, Node.js, PHP, Python, and Ruby, along with a Discovery Document for building custom client libraries or tools. The API is intended for developers building applications that programmatically create, read, or modify Google Slides presentations, including generating page thumbnails.
