When generating a PPTX with multiple pictures, all the pictures are the same

Documents

Steps to reproduce:

Example pptx Template
example_template.pptx (40.5 KB)

Example JSON:
{
"title": "Sample document",
"pic1": "https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d1/Torre_di_pisa%2C_capitello_con_scimmiette.JPG",
"pic2": "https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/61/Palazzo_Don.jpg/2880px-Palazzo_Don.jpg",
"pic3": "https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e9/20160806-DSCF1573-BalTone.jpg/2880px-20160806-DSCF1573-BalTone.jpg"
}

Example endpoint:
https://api.plumsail.com/api/v2/processes/n1nxm2o8/x958uzt/start

Even if the 3 images are different, the resulting .pptx shows the same picture (the last one) 3 times:

Hi @metalmarco,

I've got the same incorrect result in my sandbox. I'll discuss the reason with my team and reply.

Thanks @Petr
I'm the CTO of the company and I really like your product. If I could close successfully this proof of concept I would like all the employees to adopt this new solution.

I'll wait for your answer.

Marco.

Thanks a lot for the bug report, we will fix it in a week.

Thanks a lot @Roman_Rylov
Sometimes I got it working when creating the pptx on Google Slides, but never when creating the pptx template in Powerpoint.
I first saw the issue when creating looping slides (each one with 3 images). If you have time, please test also multiple images in looping slides.

Thanks again,
Marco.
