• See, edit, create and delete all of your Google Drive files - The add-on requires access to Google Drive to store the generated documents in specified folders. The merge templates are also stored in Google Drive that can be selected via the File Picker. The add-on will never delete any file in Drive.
• View and manage your Google Slides presentations - You can select any Google Slide presentation as the base template for merge. The add-on can also export documents as Google Slides.
