How to Embed Spotify Playlist in Google Slides

How to add Spotify music to Google Slides? I want to add music from my Spotify library to my presentation in Google Slides. Is there any way to embed Spotify song in Google Slides?”

Google Slides, a presentation program, belongs to the Google Docs Editors suite just like Google Docs, Google Sheets, and Google Drawings. Google Slides makes it easy for you to make simple or complicated presentations on the web, Android, iOS, Windows, BlackBerry, and more. Google Slides even empowers you to create and edit presentations online with others in real time. We can say that Google Slides owns nearly all the functions you need for a presentation editing tool.

Nonetheless, it still can be improved when it comes to importing audio and video. Unlike PowerPoint, Google Slides lacks the feature of uploading local music to presentations. Thus, you are limited to applying for Google Drive as the importing source of audio when you need to add background music, such as songs from Spotify, to your presentation in Google Slides. Here we offer a detailed guide for two methods to embed Spotify song in Google Slides.

Part 1. Best Way to Embed Spotify Song in Google Slides

The best method to add Spotify music to Google Slides is to download Spotify songs for use directly. Using this method, you don’t need a network connection when you play Spotify music during the presentation in Google Slides. To add Spotify songs to Google Slides, the first thing is to upload Spotify music to Google Drive. The difficulty is that you need to convert Spotify music to some common formats like MP3 if you want to get Spotify songs on Google Drive.

Here comes Tunelf Spotify Music Converter. This is a professional and powerful music converter for downloading and converting all songs, albums, playlists, and podcasts from Spotify.
