Power Platform Community Forum Thread Details

Hello,

I'm putting together an application for our team to go out and do a job site inspection, which would lead to an inspection form being generated. I've watched videos about how to use Power Automate to populate a word template which is pretty straight forward.

I've included an incomplete inspection template, where there will be about 10 sections for various parts of a house that need to be inspected, each having a few questions (Yes, No, N/A), room for notes, and room for any related images. I would like to have a screen for each section, so a few radio buttons, a text input for notes, and a way to optionally attach up to a specified number of images - 5 for example.

The concept seems easy to build up until I get to the images - I'm not sure the best way to have the option to upload images for each screen and then add those images to the word document.

I've thought of a few ways, but don't have enough experience to know if they'll work and trial and error is running me in circles. Each customer has their own SharePoint folder where various inspection forms will be saved to.

An additional point of information is that I would like the images and the report to be saved to the customers folder after an operator has made their way through all screens and hits the final submit.

Any input would be appreciated!

Hi @TylerBrims ,

Ultimately you would have five (in your example) Image Merge fields in your Word Template and either send them as five separate parameters in your Flow or is they are already saved somewhere, send the locations and get them from there. I deal with something similar on a number of documents with multiple signatures. The one thing to watch is the need to test for a blank incoming parameter and have a stock blank jpg file saved somewhere (I use OneDrive) to use instead (the Word document does not like expecting an Image merge field and then being sent a null content).
