Hey,
anyone knows if there is a way to use Microsoft data verse in Power Apps to assign values to a word doc (SharePoint using a template and power automate?
I got it working that i can create word files with "Populate a Word document" and "Create file in SharePoint" i just created a word template with dev tools, but now i wanna use a Database to fill out text fields, so i can change 1 value in a database for multiple word documents.
Is this possible? Or if not, is there any other good solution for this? Because changing for example 100 Word documents that have the same value is a lot of work
You`ll make it ๐ Highly recommend the video - no more open questions after!

Hi @utkua ! So you've already created a Word template with Word including placeholder fields where you want to insert dynamic data, right?
First step now is to create a dataverse table which holds the data you want to insert into the template.
After that create a Power Automate flow:
After populating the Word template, save the resulting document to a SharePoint document library or OneDrive for Business. You can use the โCreate fileโ action in Power Automate to achieve this.
Whenever a new record is added or updated in your Dataverse table, the flow will trigger and generate a new Word document.
To handle multiple Word documents efficiently, consider using a loop in your flow to process each record.
If you need to update existing Word documents, you can use the โUpdate file propertiesโ action to overwrite the existing files.
Happy building!
