How this automation works

Upload a concise summary of a chosen Google Slides presentation to Google Drive. When you enter an area you specify, the Applet asks Google Slides for the presentation's title and slide count and uploads a short text file to Google Drive. It's handy for archiving deck snapshots or creating location-triggered meeting summaries from Google Slides for hosts and mobile workers.
