To start creating stunning reports with the Zebra BI add-in for Office in PowerPoint, you just need to import them from the Microsoft AppSource into your PowerPoint: online or desktop. To unlock the full (Pro) version, you have to start the 14-day free trial.
Import visuals from Microsoft AppSource
In your PowerPoint, click on Insert > My Add-ins > Store. Search for ”Zebra” in the AppSource to find Zebra BI Tables for Office and Zebra BI Charts for Office. Click on the Add button.

After you click on the Add button, the add-ins will open automatically and you will need to sign in to your Microsoft account.

The next time you want to start using the add-ins, simply click on the drop-down arrow next to My add-ins and easily access both.

Add your data to start using add-ins
Once you add the add-ins to PowerPoint, the so-called ‘Chart chooser’ or ‘Table chooser’ will open up.
On the first page, you will need to select the layout that best suits your needs for the presentation. When you make your selection, the chart or table will be created automatically, with some dummy data in the data editor.

To change the data to your own, open the data editor and simply copy-paste it from your original file to this data editor in PowerPoint. To do that, click on the Zebra BI logo in the top-right corner and a global toolbar will slide open. Click on the 3rd icon to open the data editor.

By expanding the global toolbar that appears after clicking on the Zebra BI logo, you can also:
- check the design settings (1st icon),
- click on the information pane (2nd icon),
- return to ‘Chart chooser’ or ‘Table chooser’ (4th icon),
- or convert the chart type to small multiples in case you want to show the part-to-whole visualization.
