How to capture emails on shared Gamma Files

Add an email gate to your Gamma files so you know exactly who viewed, when they viewed, and what they cared about. With Send, your Gamma deck opens in a clean viewer with AI Chat beside it, so people get instant answers without waiting on you. You keep one stable link, see engagement in real time, and follow up with context that shortens the cycle.

When this is useful

Sharing Gamma content often needs identity and signal to move deals forward. Use this when you want verified viewers, automated alerts, and clear next steps.

• You circulate a Gamma pitch or onboarding deck and want more than anonymous views.
• You need an alert the moment a target account opens your file so you can time outreach.
• You want AI to handle pricing, scope, and timeline questions while someone is reading.
• You care about which slides drew attention so the next call skips recap.

Step‑by‑step

1. Add your Gamma file to Send

Start by getting your Gamma share URL ready.

• Install the Send Chrome extension from send.co, or open the Send app and click New Document.
• Paste your Gamma link. Send loads the content into a shareable page with AI Chat turned on.
• Mention in your share note that there’s an AI beside the deck for instant answers.

2. Turn on a viewer gate (require Email; optionally Name and Phone)

Gates help you verify who is engaging before they see the content.

• Open Link Settings and enable the viewer gate.
• Require Email to identify viewers before the deck loads. Add Name and Phone for richer context if needed.
• Optionally enable “Hide content until submitted” so slides stay hidden until the form is complete.

3. Add Suggested Questions to steer attention

Suggested Questions get people to decisive answers quickly.

• Add 3–5 prompts that drive the action you want. Examples: 1) “What does this cost?” 2) “What’s included in implementation?” 3) “When could we start?” 4) “Can you share relevant case studies?”
• These appear at the bottom of the deck and guide readers to key answers fast.

4. Share one stable Send link

A single link simplifies sharing and preserves analytics across updates.

• Click Copy link and send it to prospects or teammates.
• If your recipient is known, use a personalized link (custom slug) so they can view without a gate while you still attribute correctly.
• If your audience is broader or unknown, keep the email gate on to capture contact info and intent.

5. Monitor activity and follow up with context

Real‑time signal helps you prioritize and respond precisely.

• You’ll get an email alert on opens. In Activity, see who viewed, location, device, and time on deck.
• Review the AI Chat log to see the exact questions they asked. Use this to tailor your next message.
• Turn on webhooks to update CRM or notify Slack automatically on opens or link clicks.

Why this is faster with Send

Most Gamma shares become a black box once the link goes out. Send changes that by capturing identity up front, steering readers with Suggested Questions, and answering via AI Chat right beside your deck. You see what mattered, when it happened, and who did it. That means fewer back‑and‑forth emails, better‑timed follow‑ups, and calls that skip repetition and go straight to decisions.

Troubleshooting & tips

Small adjustments make a big difference in engagement quality. Use these checks if something feels off.

• Deck won’t load: Confirm required gate fields are completed. If “Hide content until submitted” is enabled, slides remain hidden until submission.
• Sensitive content: Disable download and print in Link Settings. Share only with those who need access.
• Update without breaking links: Use Replace file to update the deck under the same Send URL. Your analytics and link stay intact.
• Low interaction: Add or refine Suggested Questions focused on pricing, timeline, and next steps. These prompts reliably increase chat activity.
• Known recipients: Prefer a personalized link with a custom slug for frictionless viewing and precise attribution without a form.
• Multi‑stakeholder sharing: Keep the gate on. As the link circulates internally, each viewer submits their email so you see the buying group form.

Integrations & automation

Automation turns engagement into immediate action in your systems of record.

Webhooks:

• Enable webhooks for document open or any link open events.

Pipe events to Clay, Zapier, or Make to:

• Create or update a contact or account in your CRM.
• Append an activity with viewer identity, timestamp, and device.
• Notify a Slack channel or rep when a target account opens the deck.
• Trigger a sequence or task when a specific link is clicked from within the deck.

Privacy and controls

You stay in control of access and distribution while keeping the experience smooth.

• Require Email via viewer gate, and add Name and Phone if you need deeper qualification.
• Use “Hide content until submitted” to block slides until required fields are complete.
• Disable download and print for sensitive or paid content.
• For known contacts, use a personalized link (custom slug) to attribute views without a gate.
• When revising, use Replace file to keep the same URL and analytics history while updating content.
