Embedding a powerpoint in a dashboard

melissa.g.mendez

The instructions for embedding a pptx in a dashboard look straightforward. I've opened my pptx on the web and copied the embed link, but when I paste it into the Web Content Widget, I get the error "We couldn't find any embeddable content from this link. Please check the link and try again." I'm following all the instructions, and the sharing permissions should allows the file to open.

Any troubleshooting tips?

Hey @melissa.g.mendez

Where is your online presentation stored? (File > Location)

You'll want to ensure this is stored in a Sharepoint file with the embed code starting with a URL like so:

https://smartsheet365-my.sharepoint.com/personal/genevieve_...

However if the URL starts with accessing OneDrive then it won't be read by the widget:

https://onedrive.live.com/embed?...

Here's more information from Microsoft:
