Slide deck generation

Slide deck generation lets users create on-brand slide decks directly from Glean. When a user asks Glean to create a presentation, Glean generates an outline, then builds a full PowerPoint deck using your company's uploaded template.

Users can view the generated slides in Glean, then export to PowerPoint or Google Slides.

info

Slide deck generation is off by default. To enable it, you must upload at least one slide deck template.

Set up slide deck generation

Upload a template and enable the feature

1

Open the admin console

Go to Admin console → Assistant → Settings → Slide deck generation.

2

Upload a template

Click Upload and select a .pptx file. This should be a company-approved, on-brand template (for example, a QBR, all-hands, or onboarding deck).

note

Only .pptx files are accepted. Other formats are rejected.

3

Choose who can use slide deck generation

Select one of the following options:

• Off — Slide deck generation is disabled (default).
• On only for admins — Only admins can generate full slide decks. Use this to test the feature before rolling it out.
• On for everyone — All users can generate slide decks.

4

Save your changes

Click Save. You cannot save until a template has been uploaded.

Template guidelines

Upload a template that reflects your company's standard branding:

• Use a .pptx file with the slide layouts, master slides, fonts, and color palettes you want Glean to use.
• Company-approved templates for common use cases (QBRs, all-hands, onboarding) work best.
• Glean clones the template's design when generating new decks, so the output matches your brand.

What users see when slide deck generation is off

When the feature is off (the default), users who ask Glean to create slides will still get a slide outline in Canvas. When they attempt to generate the full deck, they see a message like:

To generate a slide deck, your admin needs to upload a company slide template in the admin console. Please contact your admin to set this up.
