Export a PMO weekly presentation

The PMO export is a document workflow, not a table download. Tasks' Generate menu lists every Skill your space has hooked to Tasks; pick the one that builds this deck, confirm the run, and Formist opens a chat that runs it against your live Tasks and stores the returned file in Files.

Check task access

The Skill and its own PowerPoint template attachment must both be available to the space. The run consumes the applicable AI quota and requires permission to create a space file.

Generate the deck

1. Open Tasks and select Generate.
2. Choose the deck Skill from the list under Skills.
3. Confirm the run.
4. Keep the AI pane open, or come back to the conversation later while it runs.
5. Use the generated file link to download the .pptx.

The Skill reads your current Task records with code: owners, due dates, status, position, and progress notes. It fills its own attached template and files the result. Formist never types slide content out as prose and presents that as a finished deck: only a real, downloadable file counts as a generated one. The deck appears in the space Files data once the file-created event is synchronized.

If generation fails

A missing or unusable template attachment stops the run and the chat says so; Formist must not claim that a deck exists when it does not. Quota, AI-provider, or file-storage errors also stop generation. Fix the reported dependency, then run the Skill again.

Frequently asked questions

Does Formist write the slide content as text in the chat, or generate a real file?

Always a real file. Formist never types slide content out as prose and calls that a finished deck; a PMO export only counts as done once the Skill produces a downloadable PPTX stored in Files.
