complete

Please allow us to use the API to export slides as PNGs - just like we can do in the app!

Hey Dylan Radovic, thanks for the clear ask here. Exporting slides as PNG via the API makes a ton of sense, I’ll pass this along to the team.
Quick couple questions so we scope it right:
1) Do you need a PNG per slide, or a single combined image output?
2) Any must-haves on resolution and background (transparent vs solid), and is this for thumbnails, printing, or something else?

Nik Payne (Gamma design) - thanks for getting back to me so quick!
On your Qs
(1) Yes, PNG per slide
(2) Hm, not particularly. My use case is that I want to generate the slides then show them in my own frame on my app; however, Gamma API security doesn't allow us to host the actual slide on a frame / sandbox outside of Gamma. Therefore, I think it might be best to just export the slide as PNG

Dylan Radovic: Just got word this is actually already possible, just not documented yet. Max is going to update our documentation! Look for a change in the documentation
