Edit Google files to personalize your content Updated March 11, 2025 16:07 With Showpad’s Google Edit integration, you can customize and personalize Google Slides, Docs, and Sheets from within Showpad, allowing you to feel confident on the go with your best custom assets by your side. Simply navigate to an asset synced via Google Drive in an Experience or My Files, and Select Open with Google. Make your edits, and voila--you’re ready to put your best foot forward with a tailored presentation. When editing marketing-uploaded assets within Experiences, you will automatically create a copy of the file and the new edited version will be uploaded to My Files. When editing Google assets within My Files, you can overwrite the existing version, or create another copy. Changes you make will be reflected in Showpad and Google Drive, streamlining your workflow. Sharing insights of the modified assets will be tracked just like other Showpad content. In order to copy marketing content over and edit it, you will need to have access to the files in Google Drive with the sharing setting "Viewers and commenters can see the option to download, print, and copy" enabled.
