Slides: Link to specific slide

When sharing, I would love to be able to specify a specific slide to link to. This will allow more fine tune sharing. If the url was appended with something like “slide-1” it would allow for us to create dynamic and easily editable links in our Airtable as well.

We are using slides as a creative review workflow and this would help us tremendously!

Agree that this would be very useful. My current use case is to link to a specific research insight within my slide deck.

Hi ​@Jack_Wiese2 ​@Christie Lenneville ,

 

Thank you for your suggestion! Just to confirm, are you referring to the "Copy link to selection" feature? This allows you to access the specific link, I believe. 

 

Please let me know if it doesn’t work as expected! 

 

Thanks,

Toku

@y_toku Yes, that’s exactly what I needed, thank you. I never would have thought to look there.

Following up on this as it seems this only allows linking to the slide within the editable file. I’d really like to be able to link to a specific slide within the shared presentation, not the direct file. This would be very useful for longer running decks, table of contents, etc etc. Most of the time I do not want to send the audience to the editable Slides file, but keep them in the presentation.

Hi ​@Ryan Cuppernull, thanks for following up! 

When you’re in presentation mode in your Slides file, you can actually go to the specific slide that you wish to share then click the Share presentation button then Copy audience link to generate a link to that specific slide within the shared presentation.

Thank you, this is helpful! Is there currently a way to link within the presentation vs opening a new tab when clicking these links? That would be a great feature as I often need to link within decks for navigation, references, etc.

Is there any update on this?

When I export a presentation as a PDF I have to go in and link contents sections to the pages, would be great to be able to just do this in Figma.
