    Hi @Anna Adezati ,

    Per my research, you could try to update PowerPoint from SharePoint columns by way of Excel as a workaround.

    1.SharePoint

    Select your list > LIST > Connect & Exprot > Exprot to Excel > Save

    2.Excel

    Create a Excel sheet > Data > Connections > Add... > Browse for More... > Select the file downloaded in step 1 > then you could create tables or something you like

    3.PowerPoint

    Copy the Excel created in step 2 > Paste > Paste Special > Paste link > OK

    For more details: Link Data in PowerPoint to the Source (Database / Sharepoint)
