# Presenter Notes Format

Switch to the presenter-focused layout per the [presenter recipe](https://docs.autocontentapi.com/quick-start/slide-decks/set-presenter-format).

```python
import os
import requests

token = os.getenv("AUTOCONTENT_TOKEN", "YOUR_API_TOKEN")
endpoint = "https://api.autocontentapi.com/content/Create"

payload = {
    "outputType": "slide_deck",
    "topic": "Migrating a monolith to microservices",
    "text": "Keep slides minimal with talking points in presenter notes. Close with a checklist.",
    "duration": "short",
    "slideDeckFormat": "presenter",
}

response = requests.post(
    endpoint,
    headers={"Authorization": f"Bearer {token}", "Content-Type": "application/json"},
    json=payload,
    timeout=30,
)

if response.status_code >= 400:
    raise SystemExit(f"Request failed: {response.status_code} {response.text}")

print("Slide deck request accepted:")
print(response.json())
```

Set `YOUR_API_TOKEN` (or `AUTOCONTENT_TOKEN`) before running.
