Summary

Generate a PPTX presentation file from an existing document or dynamically from a template with optional data and settings, returning the generated file as binary data along with its URL and document ID.

Inputs

  • Build Source (required) — Choose to build the PPTX either from an existing document by its ID or directly from a template by specifying the template and related parameters.
  • Document ID (required) — The ID of the existing document to build the PPTX from. Required if Build Source is 'By Document ID'.
  • Template ID (required) — The ID of the template to create the document from. Required if Build Source is 'Directly From Template'.
  • Name — Optional name for the document created on-the-fly when building directly from a template.
  • Init (Empty Document) — If true, creates an empty document without data when building directly from a template.
  • Settings (JSON) — JSON object specifying document settings such as size, background, color, margin, padding, and fontSize. Used only when building directly from template and Init is false.
  • Data (JSON) — JSON object containing field data for the document when building directly from a template and Init is false.
  • Keep Document — Boolean flag whether to keep the created document in your list after building. Defaults to true. If false, the temporary document created on-the-fly will be deleted after the PPTX file is generated.

Output shape

A single binary file containing the generated PPTX presentation per workflow input item.

The output includes a JSON object with the generated file's URL and the document ID used for build, along with the binary data of the PPTX file. If building directly from a template and Keep Document is false, the temporary document will be automatically deleted after the file is generated.

Examples
