Overview and Enabling Report Builder

The system can allow users to export one or more Dashboard snapshots as a Microsoft PowerPoint or PDF presentation.

This functionality requires that trusted ticket authentication is enabled and it only works for dashboards which correspond to a workbook view on the Tableau Server specified in the Integrations > Connections settings. See the Trusted Ticket Authentication section for more information.

If enabled, you can upload a custom PowerPoint template to be used on each export. You can find this under Settings > Curator > Portal Settings > Report Builder.
