What this video covers

This tutorial shows how to use the Pitchdeck presentation Figma plugin to embed a Google Doc inside a Figma slide and then export the presentation to Pitchdeck web presentation. It also shows how to make the Google Doc public, paste the embed link into a layer in Figma, and verify the embed in the exported presentation.

Things you'll need

• A Figma file with slides built as frames.
• A Google Doc that can be published to the web.

Steps

1. Open your Figma file, find Pitchdeck in Resources, and run the plugin from Saved plugins.
2. Create or select the Figma frame you want to use as a slide, then choose a rectangle, image, or other shape layer to hold the embed.
3. In the Pitchdeck plugin, open the GIFs/Videos/Embeds tab and select the target layer.
4. In Google Docs, set sharing to Anyone with the link, then use File > Share > Publish to Web and copy the embed link.
5. Paste the Google Docs embed link into the Pitchdeck embed field, adjust the layer size if needed, and reload the frame preview.
6. Click Export Presentation, then Upload Web Presentation or Update Web Presentation to send the slides to Pitchdeck.
7. Open the generated link in a browser to confirm the Google Doc appears in the presentation and remains selectable.
