Add a New Slide Introduction This article shows you how to add new slides in PowerPoint presentations using Aspose.Slides for Cloud API in your applications. A presentation must be already saved to a storage. You can add a new slide at the end of the presentation or at a specified position. When creating a new slide, a layout can be applied immediately.

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. Check out our GitHub repository for a complete list of Aspose.Slides Cloud SDKs along with working examples, to get you started in no time. Please check Available SDKs article to learn how to add an SDK to your project.
