This is especially interesting because I have previously been building my own REST Services for a Slide Service that we use for our own SaaS products at SNP Schneider-Neureither & Partner AG - such as the SNP System Scan. Results may look like this and a fully generated using a home-grown REST Service API.
As far as the REST API is concerned it takes some slide definition in JSON fomat that looks something like this:
{
"title":"Fun with auto generated Slide Show",
"author":"Dominik Wittenbeck",
"subtitle":"",
"header":"SNP Slideshow",
"footer":"
",
"slides":[
{
"id":"005056BF5BE41EE6A9D91E8EC1102DD3",
"title":"First Slide with some HTML",
"topline":"SNP Slides Showcase",
"html":[
"..."
]
},
{
"id":"005056BF5BE41EE6A9D91E8EC1104DD3",
"title":"Second Slide with child slides",
"topline":"SNP Slides Showcase",
"items":[
{
"id":"005056BF5BE41EE6A9D91E8EC1106DD3",
"title":"Second Slide with child slides",
"topline":"SNP Slides Showcase",
"html":[
"..."
]
},
{
"id":"005056BF5BE41EE6A9D91E8EC1108DD3",
"title":"Child Slide 2",
"topline":"SNP Slides Showcase",
"html":[
"..."
]
}
]
},
{
"id":"005056BF5BE41EE6A9D91E8EC110ADD3",
"title":"Third Slide with a Chart",
"topline":"SNP Slides Showcase",
"layout":"vertical",
"html":[
"...",
"..."
]
}
]
}
Besides the REST API I have build additional higher level APIs, that can used e.g. directly in ABAP.

So with the newly published Google Slides API maybe I could take this one step further....
