Is there a way to take a screenshot of a google slide?
(need to send it as a attachtment in a slack message)

can you try to help?

, have you tried to connect Google Slide app to Slack, maybe that app offers the preview feature, so you only need to put the Google Slide link

To take a screenshot of a Google Slide and send it as an attachment in a Slack message, you would need to use a combination of Google Slides API, Google Drive API, and Slack API. Unfortunately, Pipedream does not currently have pre-built components for Google Slides or Google Drive. However, you can write a custom code in Pipedream to interact with these APIs. Here’s a rough idea of the steps you would need to follow: 1. Use Google Slides API to get the slide’s thumbnail URL. 2. Download the image from the URL (you might need to use Google Drive API for this). 3. Use Slack API to upload the image as an attachment to a message. Please note that this would require a good understanding of these APIs and how to interact with them using HTTP requests. If you need a new integration, you can always submit a request at New Pipedream Integration Request.

If the Google Slide is publicly accessible by a URL, then you can use the Puppeteer - Create Screenshot action to take a screenshot of the URL

you made my day! Working brilliantly- thank you
