What each action does
- Download saves a copy to your device. Where a format menu is offered, choose Source file for the original, Smaller versions for reduced images or Variants for prepared alternatives.
- Insert adds supported content to the document you are working on in an add-in, such as PowerPoint or Word. For a reusable slide, open the presentation’s Slides tab and choose Insert on the slide.
- Open follows a file’s source or document link. You may need to sign in to the source service. If Download external is shown, it uses that source’s download link.
- In Pickit Desktop, Open saves and opens a local working copy in the associated application. Administrators can use Edit to update a source file, then Upload changes to send it back to Pickit.
Images and editable slides
For an editable PowerPoint slide, use Insert in the presentation’s Slides tab. A slide saved as a separate file may offer Insert slide instead. Inserting a preview image does not insert the editable slide.
If an action is missing
Actions depend on the file type, the app and usage restrictions. Check the file’s license dates or ask its content owner if Download or Insert is unavailable.
Downloaded and inserted copies do not update automatically when the source changes.
