How to Create Interactive Slides in Google Slides

Updated on:

Use this interactive demo to learn how to add clickable links and navigation to your Google Slides presentation.

Quick summary

Interactive slides in Google Slides let you add clickable links that navigate to specific slides, turning a static presentation into a non-linear, engaging experience. This feature is ideal for self-paced presentations, interactive menus, and branching scenarios.


Steps

  1. Open your presentation in Google Slides.
  2. Select the object you want to make interactive.
  3. Right-click the object and select Link.
  4. Choose a specific slide in the presentation as the link destination.
  5. Click Apply to save the link.
  6. Repeat the same process for any other clickable objects in your presentation.
  7. Open Slideshow and test each link to confirm they work correctly.

📌 Why this matters

Interactive slides in Google Slides enable presenters to create non-linear, clickable presentations that respond to audience input — making them far more engaging than traditional slide decks. By linking objects directly to specific slides, teams can build product demos, training modules, and self-service presentations without any third-party tools. This feature is built into Google Slides at no extra cost, making it accessible to anyone using Google Workspace. Mastering interactive slide links helps educators, sales teams, and marketers deliver more dynamic, memorable presentations.
