Error message when converting Google Slides to PowerPoint, to upload the PowerPoint

Dec 10, 2020

I do not believe we can as of yet, upload from Google slides, so I save the slides I need as a PowerPoint. When I try to upload that into SL 360, I get an "An error occurred while PowerPoint was saving the file" message.  

 

Does anyone have any ideas?

Hello Ken!

I'm happy to help! I've just tried this on my end, downloading a Google Slides presentation as .pptx and importing it into Storyline 360, and I didn't come across any error messages. Are you opening the .pptx in PowerPoint first before importing it into Storyline 360?

I'd also recommend trying to import the .pptx file into a new Storyline 360 project. 

Please keep me updated!

Thanks for the file, Ken. 

I was able to take a look and unfortunately ran into the same issue, even after a bit of troubleshooting.
