Jotform Overview#

Jotform’s API is a powerhouse for automating form and survey data management. With Pipedream, harness this API to trigger workflows from new form submissions, manipulate and analyze your form data, and sync it across various platforms. Think streamlined data entry to CRMs, instant notifications for new leads or feedback, and timely data backups to cloud storage.

Google Slides Overview#

The Google Slides API allows you to create, read, and edit Google Slides presentations programmatically. With Pipedream's integration, you can automate your slide workflows, enabling dynamic content updates, collaboration enhancements, and streamlined reporting. By plugging into Pipedream's serverless platform, you can trigger slide creation or updates based on events from other apps, process data for presentations, and handle sharing and publishing tasks—all with minimal fuss.
