Hello,
This should be possible as long as your UD8 member is returning data in the system. The easiest way to ensure this is to right click on a data cell using your UD8 member in a Cube View:
You can copy the result shown below and paste directly into the PPT.

When you open and process this PPT from the OS file explorer, it should return a value. Keep in mind that any time you make edits to the PPT, you will need to reupload it to OneStream.
The -9 value matches the original result from the Cube View.
For question #2, when the PPT is processed, it will only return the final document. One potential workaround would be to have another slide with just the parameters in quotes/ special characters (so they do not run). This will give you the reference point at a minimum.
You could also use captions or headers on the Cube View to display certain parameters after the document is processed. I'll be sure to reply again if we figure something else out!
