Generate a presentation with the Cloud API

Use this tutorial when a script, product, or internal workflow should create the presentation.

1. Create an API token

Create a token in your Presenton account and store it in a secret manager. Do not place it directly in source control.

2. Send a request

Replace YOUR_API_TOKEN, then run:

curl --request POST \
  --url https://api.presenton.ai/api/v3/presentation/generate \
  --header 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{
    "content": "Create a concise six-slide presentation explaining practical customer discovery for early-stage product teams",
    "n_slides": 6,
    "language": "English"
  }'

3. Save the response

Store the returned presentation identifier and paths. Your application will need them to open, track, or export the presentation.

4. Verify the deck

Open the returned edit path in the dashboard. Check the outline, slide order, facts, and visual result before adding the workflow to production.

5. Make the integration reliable

Use asynchronous generation when the caller should not wait on one connection.
Set a client timeout appropriate for presentation generation.
Store identifiers so failed handoffs can be retried safely.
Validate user input and uploaded files before submitting them.
Treat the API schema as the contract and avoid internal routes.

Your request returns a presentation that can be opened and edited in Presenton Cloud.
