Import Visualizations

Starting in MicroStrategy ONE Update 12, imported visualizations maintain the aspect ratio from your dashboard.

MicroStrategy for Office enables you to import visualizations and groups of visualizations from MicroStrategy to PowerPoint.

  1. Connect to the MicroStrategy for Office add-in. MicroStrategy for Office opens in a sidebar.
  2. Select a starting slide.
  3. Click Import Data.
  4. By default, you will see the Library where you can search for a dashboard. You can also use Content Discovery to browse using the folder view. Choose a dashboard.
  5. Select one of more visualizations and click Import.
  6. You can now see the imported object in the add-in sidebar. If you click on it, it becomes highlighted in the slide.

    You can also view your data's imported object and source details by expanding the Show Details drop-down.

Troubleshoot Import Visualizations

The following troubleshooting information applies to the MicroStrategy ONE Update 12 visualization enhancement.

Rescaling the image significantly looks different from the original import and the text is hard to read.

Rescaling images can affect visualization appearance, especially concerning font size in relation to the image size. It is best to start with a large, maximized visualization in the Library import window.

The imported image size differs from the visualization in the Library import window.

Adjust the size of the Library import window first and click the check box before importing the visualization. The add-in captures the size and aspect ratio of the visualization in a dashboard when the user clicks the corresponding check box and does not recognize subsequent changes in the Library window size that affects the visualization aspect ratio and size.
