Populate Word Table Where Columns Change Too

Posted on 4 Jan 2024 15:48:50 by

I'm using the Populate a Microsoft Word Template connector to fill out a table using repeating controls.

 

This works fine when I know how many columns I need e.g. Pre-Defined Table Headers.

 

However, I have a use case where the number of table headers is also variable. Is there a way to populate a template where it adds additional columns as well as rows?

 

Effectively I get a JSON array where the number of objects (rows) varies from run to run and the number of items (and names of those items) within those objects (column headers) also varies from run to run.

 

Example

 

Run one might have 10 rows and 6 columns called Apple, Banana, Orange, Mango, Peach and Strawberry respectively

Run two might have 20 rows and 10 columns called Chair, Table, Sideboard, Couch etc.

I have the same question (0)
