Feature Request: Utilize Existing Images in Gamma API Automation

·Aug 21, 2025 11:09 AM·

I succeeded in building a Zapier automation using Gamma API and it’s awesome 🎉. Now I have a feature request: allow Gamma generation to use images that are already in the document or email body. How we’d use this: feed investment memos - a mix of text and images - into Gamma API to automate creation of presentations.

Thanks Andrew! My guess is you'd want to feed in a PDF or doc version of the investment memo directly into the API. Is that right or are you more interested in feeding text and images separately?

Yes precisely. Text and images together in a document. I’m guessing Word, Google Doc, or PDF, easier for AI to see the flow of thought. At one point I thought of saving images into a folder, plus a doc of text, then passing it all to Gamma, but then associating words with the right images would be another hoop to jump through?

Deeni F. I’m not sure if this capability was there already, but for the first time I turned a PDF document into a gamma and it grabbed exactly the right images from the PDF document and put them into the Gamma!

Only little issue is with the Ashrose theme - all the text are really small
