Insert HTML Table into Word Template Rich Text Control Without Word Online Connector

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 4
Hi All,

I’m working on a Power Automate flow where I generate an HTML table using the “Create HTML table” action. I want to insert this table into a Rich Text Content Control inside a Word template stored in SharePoint.

However, I cannot use the Word Online (Business) premium connector (e.g., "Populate a Microsoft Word template") due to licensing restrictions or removal.

Is there a way to:

  • Insert this HTML table into a rich text content control in a DOCX file stored on SharePoint

  • Without using the premium Word connector

  • Ideally with an approach that maintains the table formatting inside the Word document.

Any help or suggestions on how to accomplish this would be greatly appreciated!

Regards
S. Ghotekar

    Populating a Word template only works with plain text controls. Take a look at this video from Pragmatic Works, it shows you how to insert tables into a Word document: https://youtu.be/-MFpKx5QdrY?si=fwpZ6_giUktgHvHG. You need to use a repeating section and plain text fields.
     
    The populate Word template action is a premium action. If you don't want to use any premium actions, take a look at this video from DamoBird365: Populate a Word Document without Premium Actions via Power Automate (Method 2)
