Need to merge 50 inputs into one word document

Posted on by Bstanley

Hello. I am trying merge 50 inputs into a word document. My flow and app work fine, but there is a 20 input limit. I’m trying to create 3 flows to add additional inputs & I’m saving the document under the customer name. However, when trying to create the second flow using the file name from power apps in step 2 of the flow (“populate a word template”) I’m using buyername.docx. But then it doesn’t give me the options for dynamic content because the file does not exist yet. I know this is confusing but if anyone can understand my issue and has a solution please help. Thank you!

You can try a third party connector such as Encodian or Plumsail

Thanks for the guidance Sudeep. However, with encodian you must use JSON format and other advanced formulas and edit the formulas in order to make it work. In other words, it doesn’t allow you to use manual inputs as the data source. Instead it makes you convert the code to use JSON as the file content. This poses a lot of problems for a non programmer like myself. When I try to add the additional code as the example in Encodian’s “Populate a word Document” describes I don’t get the same options and results. I’m going to try to use the other connector you mentioned now and see if that one is easier to use. Thanks again for your help. I’m sure your direction will lead to a solution for me.
