Show as Saved Image
VizSlides allows you to embed live dashboards but it also allows to capture the state of your dashboard and use a static image in the presentation. PowerPoint will automatically create a snapshot image very few minutes, this automatically captured screenshot will be used as your static image for the slide. It can take a few seconds/minutes before the image appears so be patient. To embed your dashboard as an image you just select the VizSlides container and click the “I” information icon in the add-in bar. From the dropdown menu you select “Show as Saved Image” and you’re done. The slide will not show a live dashboard in your PowerPoint presentation but use a Saved Image instead. This is great for sharing your slide deck and presenting it offline without logging into your Tableau environment.
If you want to switch to the live dashboard again, repeat the procedure and uncheck the “Show as Saved Image” option in the information dropdown.
