# Dashboard Management - Exporting to PowerPoint

## Background

It is often necessary to share your dashboard with executives or other stakeholders. Redbird allows users to easily export their dashboards into PowerPoint to seamlessly share data and insights throughout their organization. The PowerPoint exports are deep copies of the Redbird dashboard. All charts and tables will contain embedded data that can be edited within Excel, and all objects can be further configured within PowerPoint.

<br />

***

You can export both regular "builder" dashboards or Published dashboards to PowerPoint (see <Anchor label="here" target="_blank" href="https://docs.redbird.io/docs/publishing-dashboards">here</Anchor> for more on publishing dashboards). The sections below will outline the process for each.

## Exporting Dashboard Builder to PowerPoint

1. Click the **Dashboard Builder** node. In the right side panel, select **Download**.

2. Click **Generate New File** and Redbird will transform the dashboard into a PowerPoint presentation for you to download.

## Exporting a Published Dashboard to PowerPoint

There are two places from which you can export a published dashboard to PowerPoint:

### Exporting a Published Dashboard Via the Workflow Canvas

1. Click the published dashboard node, then click **View** from the right side panel.

2. In the case of a single published dashboard, you will only have the option to download the PowerPoint (PPT). Click the **Actions menu icon** , then click **Download PPT**.

3. In the case where the dashboard is part of a series published using Publish Multiple, you will have the change to download but also email out a link to the Published Dashboard to users via this interface.

4. To email the dashboard to users, click **Email**. On the subsequent page, enter the list of **Recipients** (comma-separated), the **Subject**, and the email **Body**. This will share a link to the specific published dashboard.

   Once finished, choose **Save** or **Save and Send**.
