Generate ready-to-share presentations, one-pagers, and carousels from a single prompt, complete with text, images, and formatting guidance.
This integration returns a Gamma URL you can instantly view or share.
What is Gamma MCP?
Gamma MCP gives your workflows AI-powered access to Gamma. Simply describe the content you need or check the status of a previous request, and the node returns structured data you can pass to the next step. The node handles all API details behind the scenes.What Can It Do for You?
- Kick off a new Gamma generation for a presentation, document, or social carousel with clear creative direction
- Fine-tune tone, imagery, and formatting for on-brand assets
- Check generation status and retrieve the finished Gamma URL for easy sharing
- Automate an end-to-end content pipeline by chaining creation and status checks in a single workflow
Available Tools
Tool | What It Does | Example Use |
---|---|---|
Create Gamma | Create AI-powered presentations, documents, or social content with customizable text, images, and formatting options | ”Create a presentation about topic using tone tone and style guidelines . Include these key points: bullet list . Return structured data with the generation id and status.” |
Get Generation | Check the status of a Gamma generation request and retrieve the completed Gamma URL | ”Using generation id , check generation status and return structured data with status and the Gamma URL if available.” |
How to Use
1
Create Your Gamma MCP Node
Go to your node library, search for Gamma, and click “Create a node with AI”.
2
Add Your Prompt
Drag the Gamma MCP node to your canvas and add your prompt in the text box.
3
Test Your Node
Run the node to see the results. If everything looks good, you’re ready for automation. If not, explore the troubleshooting tips below.
4
Save and Reuse
Once your Gamma node is working, save it to your library so you can drop it into any future workflow.
Example Prompts
Here are some prompts that work well with Gamma MCP: Create a PresentationFor best results, use two focused nodes: one to create content and one to fetch the URL. Pass the
generation id
from the first node to the second, then share or process the returned URL in later steps.Troubleshooting
If your Gamma MCP node isn’t working as expected, try these best practices:Keep Prompts Simple and Specific
- Good: “Create a presentation on
topic
and return structured data with the generation id and status.” - Bad: “Create a presentation on
topic
, wait until it finishes, fetch the URL, summarize it, and email it torecipient email
.”
While the complex prompt might work, it’s more efficient to create separate nodes. Gamma MCP works best with focused, single-action prompts.
Match What Gamma Can Do
- Good: “Using
generation id
, check status and return structured data with status and the Gamma URL.” - Bad: “Export the presentation as a PPT file and send it via email to
recipient email
.”
Gamma MCP excels at content generation and URL retrieval. For sending emails, pair it with Gmail Sender or a similar node.
Break Complex Tasks Into Steps
Instead of trying to do everything in one prompt (which might cause timeouts or incomplete results):1
Step 1: Create Content
Create a presentation about
topic
using tone
tone and style guidelines
. Return structured data with the generation id and status.2
Step 2: Get Gamma URL
Using
generation id
, check the generation status and return structured data with status and the Gamma URL if complete.3
Step 3: Share the Link
Using
recipient email
and the Gamma URL, send an email with subject email subject
and body email body
via Gmail Sender node.Connect these nodes sequentially: the
generation id
from Step 1 feeds Step 2, and the Gamma URL from Step 2 feeds Step 3.Focus on Data Retrieval
Gamma MCP is great at obtaining information from Gamma. For summaries or additional analysis, connect it to Ask AI or another node. Example:- Good prompt: “Using
generation id
, return structured data with status and the Gamma URL.” - Bad prompt: “Using
generation id
, return the URL and write a 200-word summary of the deck.”
For summarization and narrative writing, add an Ask AI node. Keep Gamma prompts focused on generation and status retrieval for the most reliable results.
Troubleshooting Node Creation
Empty Outputs
Empty Outputs
If you get empty outputs in the node creation window (or after hovering over an existing node and clicking “Edit”), open the chat interface and ask the AI to add debug logs and verify the API response. You can also click “Request changes” in the node creation window for further adjustments.
Incorrect Results
Incorrect Results
In the node creation window, describe in detail what you expected versus what you received, use the prompt window to guide the AI.
Errors
Errors
First click “Fix with Gummie”. If multiple attempts fail, simplify your prompt or contact support.
Iterate Using the Chat
Iterate Using the Chat
MCP node creation often benefits from a few tweaks. Use the chat interface to refine filters, output fields, or pagination. The AI will adjust the node based on your feedback.
