Slideshare.net (beta)

The SlideShare API is available for non-commercial use by outside developers. The current API is based upon the REST model and allows you to perform the following actions:

• Uploading Presentation(s)
• Retrieving EmbedCode for Slideshow(s)
• Retrieving Slideshows for User(s)
• Retrieving Slideshows for Tag(s)
• Retrieving Slideshows for Group(s)

To start off, you can apply for an API key which will be sent to you by email after approval. Then, dive into the API documentation for more information. Do checkout the resources section for some really useful links, and read the SlideShare API Terms of Service.

Also, be sure to check out our RSS feeds! They contain a lot of rich data (including slideshow embed codes and thumbnails) that can be useful in creating your mashup.
