Export to live PPTX

How to save to live PPTX format? Not through the menu, but through the API.

Thanks for the reply from lbendlin , please allow me to provide another insight:

Hi, @AntenPuzl 

Based on my practical testing, Power BI currently supports exporting to PPTX files as static documents and does not support embedded live data in PPTX format. Here are my findings:

For further details, please refer to:

Export Power BI embedded analytics reports API - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

At present, I recommend using a manual approach for dynamic embedding:

1.First, utilise the direct export method you mentioned.

2.Second, consider using the Power BI add-in within PowerPoint.

"export"  and "live"  are mutually exclusive.  Please provide a more detailed explanation of what you are aiming to achieve. What have you tried and where are you stuck?

In Power BI there is an option of export to "live" PPTX. I want to do the same via API.
