Populate Word Document - Multiple Apply to each

Posted on by SteveTurner

Hoping someone can help.

When building a Populate Word Template flow from SharePoint List, I'm running into issues populating more that 1 choice field in the Word template.

A single Choice field populates fine, and creates my file. When I add additional fields, which then creates nested Apply to each the flow shows success but never completes or creates the file, in the flow history the additional apply to each are greyed out.

Flow Build - Single Choice Field Working

Flow Build - Multiple Choice fields - Nested Apply to Each - Not completing - Flow history

Hi @SteveTurner

Check your flow run history and see each steps output.

Thanks

Hi @abm

I'm unable to see the outputs from "Apply to Each", they are greyed out. I can see the outputs from "Selected Item" and "Get Item"

Thanks,
Steve

Hi @SteveTurner

Thanks for the screenshot.

I can see you have three apply to each loop here.

Also could you post the run time history of values of Stage 2 Checks, Funding Priority & Target Group values.

One thing I noticed here is 'Apply to Each 3' loop populates the word template and create file. That means if you have 5 values then 5 iterations for this loop and it creates five files. Are you sure this looping logic (Apply to each 3) is correct?

Thanks

Hi @abm,

Here's the stages I've used to create the flow.

New Instant > For Selected > Get Item > Populate Word Template

As you add the choice fields the to the template, it automatically adds in the nested Apply to Each steps.
Word file content is only available following the template population in the last "Apply to Each"

Hi @SteveTurner

I didn't asked anything about add attachment. I still believe your logic is not correct here. Check my previous response and reply.

Thanks
