How to create Gamma presentations with Zapier MCP

In this tutorial, I'm using ChatGPT, but you can also build a Zapier MCP-powered AI assistant with other platforms, like Claude and Cursor.

Step 1: Set up your Zapier MCP server in ChatGPT

1. Log in to Zapier and head to the .

2. Click +New MCP Server and choose ChatGPT as the client.

3. At the top of the window, click Connect. After reading the message about developer mode, click I Understand to reveal the instructions for connecting ChatGPT. Then click Copy URL.

4. Depending on which ChatGPT plan you're on, follow the correct set of instructions below the Copy URL button. (In this process, you'll paste that URL you just copied.)

Step 2: Enable the necessary Gamma action

1. After you connect Zapier MCP, return to the Configure tab in the Zapier MCP dashboard and click + Add tool.

2. Search for Gamma, and check the Create Generation or Create From Template actions—or both, if you'd like. (Both actions create presentations, but the template option uses an existing template from your Gamma workspace.)

3. Connect your Gamma account when prompted, then click Add tool(s).

Step 3: Trigger the Gamma action in ChatGPT

1. Start a new conversation in ChatGPT.

2. Prompt ChatGPT using natural-language instructions. For example: Build an enablement deck based on the attached doc, Using these stats, create a presentation from my QBR template in Gamma, or Populate a Gamma carousel deck with ideas from this blog post. Just be sure to provide any necessary attachments, stats, or content.

3. Check your Gamma account for the completed presentation.
