# Artifacts

> The slide decks, dashboards, reports, and other deliverables Julius builds for you inside a chat.

An **artifact** is a finished deliverable Julius creates while you work, like a slide deck, a dashboard, or a written report. It's more than an inline answer or a single chart. You can open it, publish it, and download it, then find it later in your [Library](#where-to-find-your-artifacts).

When you ask Julius to "turn this into a deck," "build me a dashboard," or "write this up as a report," the result is an artifact.

## Kinds of artifacts

Julius builds several kinds of artifacts. Each has its own page with prompting tips and ideas:

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Slides" icon="presentation-screen" href="/artifacts/slides">
    Self-contained HTML presentations, exportable to PowerPoint.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Interactive artifacts" icon="window" href="/artifacts/interactive-artifacts">
    Dashboards, interactive charts, calculators, and mini-apps that run in your browser.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Reports" icon="file-lines" href="/artifacts/reports">
    Long-form, structured write-ups built from your analysis.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Charts & visualizations" icon="chart-column" href="/get-started/data-visualizations">
    Individual charts you can save, copy, and download.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

## How artifacts are created

You don't pick a tool or a format. Describe what you want, and Julius chooses how to build it:

> Turn this analysis into a 10-slide deck for my exec team

> Build an interactive dashboard of these sales by region

> Write up the findings as a report

Julius builds the artifact as part of its normal work, runs the code behind it, and shows the result in the chat.

<Tip>
  The clearer you are about format, audience, and length, the better the first draft. Each artifact page has prompting tips.

## Where to find your artifacts

Artifacts show up in three places:

* **Inline in the chat**, as Julius creates them. Click to expand an artifact into the side panel.
* **The side panel**, where you can view the full artifact and reach its controls (publish, export, download).
* **Your Library**, the home for everything you've created. Browse by type (Files, Images, Reports, Slides, and Artifacts) and reopen any one.

***

## Publishing and sharing

You can turn any artifact into a public page.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the artifact">
    Open it inline or in the side panel and click **Publish**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Publish it">
    Julius generates a public link and copies it to your clipboard. **Anyone with the link can view the artifact**, and they'll always see the latest version.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Share the link">
    Paste the link anywhere you want to share the artifact.
  </Step>
</Steps>

Anyone with the link can view a published artifact. It isn't listed in a public directory, and you can click **Unpublish** any time to take the page down.

<Note>
  Publishing shares a read-only view. Your underlying data and conversation stay private.
</Note>

## Editing an artifact

There's no separate editor. You refine an artifact the same way you created it, by asking Julius:

> Make slide 3 a bar chart instead of a table

> Add a filter for product category to the dashboard

> Tighten the executive summary and add a recommendations section

***

## Exporting

* **Slides** export to **PowerPoint** (`.pptx`) with one click.
* Other artifacts download as a file, so you can keep or share them outside Julius.
