PowerPoint.Interfaces.BindingCollectionLoadOptions & PowerPoint.Interfaces.CollectionLoadOptions

Returns
toJSON()
Overrides the JavaScript toJSON()
method in order to provide more useful output when an API object is passed to JSON.stringify()
. (JSON.stringify
, in turn, calls the toJSON
method of the object that's passed to it.) Whereas the original PowerPoint.BindingCollection
object is an API object, the toJSON
method returns a plain JavaScript object (typed as PowerPoint.Interfaces.BindingCollectionData
) that contains an "items" array with shallow copies of any loaded properties from the collection's items.
toJSON(): PowerPoint.Interfaces.BindingCollectionData;
