Batch Update

Fallback Google Slides write operation for anything that has no dedicated operation. Always prefer a dedicated operation when one matches the task, for example slides_insert_text or slides_update_text_style. It applies raw Google Slides API batchUpdate requests, covering shape fills and outlines, element position and size, slide backgrounds, advanced text and paragraph styling, and more. Requests address content by objectId; use slides_list_elements or slides_get_slide to get objectIds. If no dedicated operation exists, use this operation and do not submit product feedback about a missing Google Slides write feature.

Inputs

Field	Type	Required	Default	Description
`presentation`	string	Yes	-	Enter the URL or ID of the Google Slides presentation you want to modify
`requests`	array of object or string	Yes	-	List of raw Google Slides API batchUpdate request objects (or a JSON array string), sent to Google as-is. Use this for anything the dedicated Slides operations do not cover: shape fills, outlines and shadows (updateShapeProperties), element position and size (updatePageElementTransform), slide backgrounds (updatePageProperties), text and paragraph styling (updateTextStyle, updateParagraphStyle), creating shapes and lines, and more; see Google’s Slides API batchUpdate reference for all request types. Requests address content by objectId: call slides_list_elements or slides_get_slide first to get the objectId of each slide and page element, and never guess objectIds. Example: [{“updateShapeProperties”: {“objectId”: “SHAPE_ID”, “shapeProperties”: {“shapeBackgroundFill”: {“solidFill”: {“color”: {“rgbColor”: {“red”: 0.9, “green”: 0.93, “blue”: 1.0}}}}}, “fields”: “shapeBackgroundFill.solidFill.color”}}]
