Posted on by Vini92

Hello,

I am pretty new in Power Apps, so I am very sry if my question sound super silly.

I want to know which licence I need to use "Populate a Word template" from Word Online (Business). I have a trial "Power App user licence". The describtion inscludes some notes about that premium conenctor are included. But I still cant use the function above in a flow that I want to integrate on a button in Power Apps.

I tried the "Power automate user license" as well but still dont get acces to it.

I am very gratful for your help.

Sincerly Vini

Populate a Word template requires either a Power Apps per user or per app license. If you have a trial license that should be good enough. What happens when you try to build the flow with that action and attach it to a Power App.

I cant choose it. When I build a flow, I try to choose "Populate a Word template" , but it doesnt show up. It just seems like in the attached screen.

I also attached my licences.

thx a lot for the fast reply

Search first for 'Word Online' and choose the connector in the top box. Then you'll see the action in the bottom one. The search for the actual action doesn't always work if the naming isn't exactly the same. Better to narrow it to the connector first if you don't see what you want when you search.

I try that as well, but it doesnt show up. I've seen above that I am still in a standart enviroment (attach pice right corner), may thats the problem? Do I need a aditional licence to the "Power app user licence"?

The action should be there whether you have a license to use it or not. If you use it you'll get an error when you try to run the flow, not when you try to build it. Does the Word Online connector show up when you search for that? If not its probably been blocked for this environment using Data Policies in the Power Platform admin center.

Would this license work? "Power Apps for Office 365 for Government"

Not for using the Word Online connector that is referenced in this post. That connector requires a Premium license. Office 365 licenses, including the one for Government, only provide access to Standard connectors.

Thank you, so much. At least now I know for sure why this isn't working for me and can try to find an alternative. Really annoying how confusing this is and how we are nickel and dimed.
