Clay and Google Slides Integration: Column Variable Query

Clay x Google Slides Integration Issue Problem Description: https://www.loom.com/share/162f295ebfcb434ca6c750c5b1640cdc Table link: https://app.clay.com/workspaces/522602/workbooks/wb_0swirz0Vrsx8qrhdrSS/tables/t_0swirz4pxWjEcPSdq5o/views/gv_0swirz5kDYHWc3rn3gc One more question:

where do you find the exact variable for each column of your table? (see the variables marked in red on the photo)

for example, if I want to add ‘Fundraising Amount’, ‘Stage’, and ‘News #1’ columns as variables in my slide’s template, which {{variables}} shall I input in the template?

To find the exact variable names for your Clay table columns, you can use the following method: 1. In your Clay table, locate the columns you want to use (e.g., 'Fundraising Amount', 'Stage'). 2. To reference these columns in your Google Slides template, use the column names wrapped in double curly brackets, like this: {{Fundraising Amount}}, {{Stage}}. 3. For more complex data structures, you may need to use specific endpoints. For example, if 'News #1' is part of a list, you might reference it as {{news.0.title}} (assuming 'title' is the specific field you want). Remember to use the exact column names as they appear in your Clay table. If you're unsure about the correct syntax, you can type a forward slash ("/") in your template to see a dropdown of available columns and their correct reference format.

Hey, thanks for sharing the Loom—super helpful. To answer your questions: 1. When setting up the integration, make sure you select both the Google Slides folder and the specific presentation. That’s what makes the variables show up correctly. 2. To use columns in your slide template, you’ll need to write them inside double curly brackets. For example:{{Fundraising Amount}} {{Stage}} {{News #1}} and they will appear as fields inside of the Google Slide integration Here’s a guide if you need a visual reference: https://www.clay.com/university/guide/google-slides-integration Let me know if you’d like help testing one out!
