If you are a new user of Present, either Pro or Lite, or you just want to explore Present's core functionality, you can make use of our Getting Started guides as a crash course that helps you learn what you can do and how you can do it!
Each of the guides in this section walk you through the process of creating a presentation from end-to-end. The guides focus on the most common instructions, and link through from the example information to the more detailed full help instructions that you might need when you are creating your own presentation.
If you are looking for more formal training, you might want to visit our online Learning Management System, which provides access to detailed training resources. For more information, see Learning Hub.
Exercise 1: Using the Chatbot
If you are licensed to use the Pyramid Chatbot, you might want to follow the end-to-end exercise to populate some slides in your presentation using natural language prompts. You will use the Chatbot to create and embed new visuals, slicers, insights, and other content following two main steps: a simple step where you ask an analytic question and Pyramid decides what to do for you (which visuals to create, which visualization types to use, and so on) and a more advanced step where you ask precisely for the items that you want to include.
Warning: When using LLMs, your assets are generated using public domain algorithms. This can produce erroneous and inconsistent or random results. Use at your own risk.
Exercise 2: In Present Pro
Build a new presentation in Present Pro, creating new visuals and slicers that are local to the presentation and making use of the tools on the Design ribbon to control the look and feel of the presentation.
Exercise 3: In Present Lite
Build a new presentation in Present Lite, creating new visuals and slicers that are local to the presentation, adding slide insights, and setting up some text boxes and formatting options.
Note: Whether you have access to Present Pro or Present Lite depends on your access to the system. To change your access rights, speak to your administrator.
