Introduction to Presentation Generator

The Presentation Generator automates the creation of presentations based on user selections made through wizard pages. Presentations are generated using a configured template and do not require any plugins or Office connectors. Generation occurs on the server and can be triggered by user actions, lifecycle promotions, or scheduled jobs.

Templates include content controls mapped to properties of ItemTypes and RelationshipTypes. Presentations can also be composed from existing presentations stored in Innovator. Templates may contain repeating content controls, which are linked to data sources derived from relationship collections or ServerMethod outputs. The appropriate template for generation is selected based on predefined rules.

Presentation generation can be initiated by any user action or system event. The process utilizes a template associated with the relevant ItemType.
