trello-logoTrello is a project management app that helps users organize and prioritize information in highly visual ways. Just recently, it announced Slides integration for the Google Drive Power-Up. In general, a Power-Up is a way to enhance or expand Trello’s features by integrating with plug-ins, add-ons and 3rd party applications. In the past, users are able to attach docs, spreadsheets and folders from Google Drive into a Trello card. The latest Slides integration allows users to turn a board or set of cards into a presentation easily. Looking for a brilliant extension to Trello, we suggest trying out our own tool Bridge24 for Trello.

Trello for Google Slides

With this latest integration, users can make a Slide deck quickly out of Trello cards. Work information that is already outlined on the board can be easily turned into a presentation in just a short amount of time. Aside from the time savings, it is a great and handy tool for many important situations such as:

  • Company meetings
  • Sprint retrospectives
  • Design feedback
  • Any situation for sharing a Trello board in a clear, presentable way.

All project team members can easily see the presentation in their own devices, leave comments and collaborate productively. Slides can be projected on a big screen or shared to other members by email or other communication apps.

How to turn a Trello Board into a Slides Presentation

A Trello board can become a Google Slides Presentation in few easy steps. Users should enable the Google Power-Up in the upper right section of the board. Once enabled, by clicking the Google Drive menu, a dropdown will appear that has a “Create Slides Presentation” option. Users can click it to create a presentation where they can either proceed to presentation mode or go to edit mode to make changes or refinements over the slides.
