Copy Slides

Introduction

Aspose.Slides Cloud lets you easily copy a slide with its content to create a new slide in a PowerPoint presentation. The presentation must be already saved to a storage. You can copy a slide at the end of the presentation or at a specified position. You can copy a slide either within the same presentation or by specifying an original one. In the second case, the original presentation must also be in the Cloud storage. Both presentations can be password protected and you can specify passwords.

SDKs

Using an SDK (API client) is the quickest way for a developer to speed up development. An SDK takes care of a lot of low-level details of making requests and handling responses and lets you focus on writing code specific to your particular project.
