How To Search Content Using Macabacus

How to search and insert content using the Macabacus extension

Before you can search, filter and insert content using the Macabacus extension, you must first verify that your connection is configured.

Search Content

Begin from inside your branded PowerPoint template.

  1. Navigate to the Macabacus toolbar in the top ribbon.

  2. Click Library.

  3. Live content from your Pitchly tables will be displayed to the right side of your PowerPoint window.

  4. Using the search bar, filter tables by key terms (company names, industries or other criteria) to select content you wish to insert.

  5. Select to highlight the content you want to add and then click Insert.

Pro tip: Holding the CTRL key while selecting digital assets allows you to select multiple at a time before inserting the content to a slide. To select a range of assets, select the first asset in the group, hold the SHIFT key, then select the last one of the group.

Filtering Content

To filter content, begin at the top of the Library pane.

  1. Click the Filter dropdown

  2. Select a table to filter data by and start to populate filter fields to narrow down your search.

  3. Once filtered, scroll down in the Library pane to view and select the content you wish to add into your slide and click Insert.

  4. If adding multiple digital assets at one time, a window for Arrangement will appear to allow you to choose a pre-selected format for the slide.

  5. Make final touches by dragging and dropping content where you desire on the page.
