3835File size limit exceeded. The maximum allowed size is 100 MB
3842Invalid file extension

For a full list of error handling cases in Co-edit Presentation, refer here.

Note: 

To open a presentation in Co-view or collab view mode, please set 'document.edit:false' in "permissions" parameter section.

save_url usage:

Zoho Office Integrator allows partners and businesses to save the presentation content back to their specified storage server through "save_url" method.

A save_url is a publicly accessible webhook or a web URL to which Zoho will push the updated presentation content from Show editor to the partner's server.

In order to use the save_url method, partners should fulfill the below requirements:

  1. Partner's remote servers need to expose one of their ports - port 443 (HTTPS) or port 80 (HTTP) - from their location, for Zoho Show to push the data back.
  2. The save_url value specified in the HTTPS/HTTP POST request should be a proper domain name and publicly accessible over the web. Example: https://zylker.com/save.php

save_url_params usage:

By default, when the 'Save' is performed, we will be pushing back the information with the following key names:

Key NameTypeDescription
contentFileFile content will be pushed back in the form of bytes.
filenameStringPresentation name
formatStringSpecifies the format in which the presentation has been exported. 

If you wish to customize the above key names that you need to send back during save call, you can make use of the 'save_url_params' key inside 'callback_settings' parameter.

Once the 'save_url_params' key is configured, only the key values defined inside will be pushed back to your server. The default key names (like filename and format) will not be included. To include them, you need to define your own keys for format, filename and session_id by using the system variable $format$filename and $session_id respectively.

If the 'save_url_params' is passed as an empty JSON or the system variable $content is not configured, the file bytes will be pushed back with the multipart name 'content' by default.

Syntax:

"save_url_params": {
      <custom_content_key>: $content,
      <custom_format_key>: $format,
      <custom_filename_key>: $filename,
      <custom_sessionId_key>: $session_id,
      <additional_user_key>: <value>,
      <additional_user_key>: <value>,
      ....
      <additional_user_key>: <value>
      },

Example:

"save_url_params": {
      file: $content,
      extension: $format,
      presentation_name: $filename,
      session_id: $session_id,
      <additional_user_key>: <value>,
      <additional_user_key>: <value>
      },

In the above example, the file bytes will be pushed back in the multipart name 'file', file format in the key name 'extension', presentation filename in the key name 'presentation_name' and the file session id in the key name 'session_id'
