Overview

Open Agents, Presentations to see every presentation for the selected client. Each presentation keeps its own saved versions, published version, share link and Performance report. Original sales deck appears when the client has versions of the original deck. Archive presentations you no longer use to keep the list short; they move to Archived and keep their share links. Opening a presentation shows its name with a left sidebar of Chat, Preview and Performance, and it opens on Preview. You design and change a presentation by describing what you want in Chat; Preview is where you review saved versions and publish one. Inbound access is required.

How to use this page

  1. Select the client

    If you work across clients, choose the client in the sidebar first. The library shows only that client's presentations.

  2. Review the library

    Current shows the presentations in use and Archived shows the ones put away, each with a count. Each row shows the Name, Status (Published or Draft), Versions (such as 2 versions), Updated date and Actions. Select a name or Open to edit it, or View live to open a published presentation in a new tab. On a phone, each presentation shows as a card with its versions and Updated date under the name, and Open and View live as links below.

  3. Create a presentation

    Select New presentation and enter a Name. Short name fills in from it using lowercase letters, numbers and single hyphens; to change it, or to add Audience and purpose (who it is for and what it should help them understand), open More options. Select Create presentation. It is created as a private draft with its own share link, no website required, and opens on Chat so you can describe the design. Cancel closes the form.

  4. Archive or restore a presentation

    Select Archive on a row to move it to Archived. It keeps its versions, and a published presentation stays live at its share link. To bring it back, select Archived, then Restore on its row. If the presentation changed since you loaded the page, refresh and try again. Archiving and restoring need a Client Admin for the selected client or an authorized SalesHive administrator.

  5. Design it in Chat

    Choose Chat in the sidebar, or select Edit with chat or Start designing on Preview. Under What would you like to change?, describe the change you want, such as a new layout, different typography, your own colors or a complete redesign, and select Send. You can attach a design reference. Chat opens on a fresh conversation each time you visit; a conversation is saved in Projects once you send it, and Open in Projects at the top reopens it there. New chat starts another fresh one. The agent saves its work as a new draft version and does not publish unless you ask.

  6. Review a saved version

    Choose Preview. Pick a version in the Saved version menu, which shows each version's name, Draft or Published and when it was saved. Select the refresh icon beside it after the agent saves a change. Switch between Desktop, Tablet and Phone to see how the slides fit each screen, or select Open preview to view it in a new tab. Open Version details below the preview for Copy to new draft, Private speaker notes when the slides have them, and any existing Google Slides export. Preview visits do not count toward Performance.

  7. Change the slide dimensions

    Under the preview toolbar, choose Widescreen 16:9, Wide 16:10 or Standard 4:3 in Slide dimensions. The new size is saved as a new draft copy of the selected version, which then opens in Preview; the original version and the share link do not change until you publish the draft. Review every slide, then publish it. Changing dimensions needs a Client Admin for the selected client or an authorized SalesHive administrator.

  8. Publish a version

    With the version you want selected, select Publish version and confirm Publish. That exact version then appears at the presentation's share link, the button reads Published, and earlier versions stay in history. To make an editable copy of the selected version without changing the original, open Version details and select Copy to new draft. Publishing and copying need a Client Admin for the selected client or an authorized SalesHive administrator.

  9. Check how often it is opened

    Open a presentation and select Performance. Choose 7, 28 or 90 days. Presentation opens counts public page loads across this presentation's published versions, and Recent opens lists the latest 20 opens in UTC. Opens are anonymous page loads, not unique people, and reloads count again.

  10. Return to the library

    Select Presentations at the top of the sidebar. On a narrow window or phone, the sidebar becomes a section menu beside Presentations.

Common questions

Not for named presentations. Each gets its own app.saleshive.com/presentations link once a version is published. Original sales deck uses the original website's /deck address, so it needs a published website.
A Client Admin for the selected client, or an authorized SalesHive administrator.
No. It stays private until you publish a version. Published share links ask search engines not to index them.
No. Archiving only moves it from Current to Archived. Its saved versions and published share link stay as they are, and you can still open it from Archived. Select Restore to return it to Current.
The version most recently published from Preview. To show another saved version, select it in Saved version and select Publish version.
Each presentation keeps its saved slide dimensions everywhere. On a smaller screen the whole slide scales down to fit instead of rearranging, so it looks the same on every device. To change the shape, use Slide dimensions on Preview.
Each load of a published share link or website deck address. Private editor previews are excluded, and tracking blockers or Do Not Track can stop an open being recorded. Your own tests of the public link may be counted. Downloads and how far someone read are not measured. Tracking started with this feature, so earlier views are not shown.
Only you. Your editing conversations are private to you and saved in Projects after you send them, so teammates working on the same presentation keep separate conversations. To return to an earlier one, open it from Projects. Saved versions and the published version are shared.
Presentations are now designed through Chat. Describe what you want, then review the saved draft on Preview and publish it there.
Presentations replaced it in the Agents menu. Use View live on a published presentation, including Original sales deck.
