Users can orchestrate the automated delivery of selected Present dashboards using Subscriptions which effectively exports or prints the content in a selected document format and distributes it on a scheduled basis.
Note: this feature is available with the Enterprise Edition license only.
Configuring a subscription involves choosing an output, defining the schedule, and setting up distribution via the bulletin board or email. This allows you to share presentations in a similar way to the scheduling and distribution of publications.

Subscriptions can also be accessed and triggered from Discover reports.

Dynamic Interactions
Any interactions made at runtime at the time the subscription job runs will be reflected in the exported presentation. For example, if you apply any quick filtering or sorting, this will be rendered in the exported presentation. If the presentation contains enabled slicers, the content items with which they share an interaction will be filtered by the current slicer element.
In the example below, we see that the slicer and drill down selections applied to the grid at runtime are reflected in the exported presentation:
