How to Link Text to a Slide in Google Slides

Try this guided demo to learn how to link text to a slide in Google Slides.
  1. Let's link some text to a specific slide. Select the text you want to turn into a clickable link.
  2. Now, select Link from the available options.
  3. Choose Slides in this presentation from the dropdown menu to link within your deck.
  4. Select the slide you want to link to—this makes navigation quick and interactive for your audience.
  5. Test it out! Click the linked text to jump directly to your chosen slide.

📌 Why this matters

Linking text to slides transforms linear presentations into interactive experiences where your audience can jump between sections based on their interests or questions. This becomes especially powerful during Q&A sessions or when presenting to diverse groups with varying expertise levels. You can create a custom navigation system that lets viewers explore supporting details, reference materials, or backup slides without losing their place in your main narrative. The real advantage emerges when you realize you're building a presentation that adapts to your audience's needs rather than forcing them through a rigid sequence.
