    Hi,
     
    1. Prepare your Word template
    Open your Word file, go to Developer tab, and add content controls like text fields. Save this file in sharePoint or Onedrive.
     
    2. Use Populate a Microsoft Word template action
    In your flow, add this action and select your template file. You’ll see all the fields you created—fill them with dynamic data.
     
    3. Create a new file from the result
    Add Create file action sharePoint or onedrive and use the output from the previous step as the file content. Give it a new name.
     
    4.Convert or send if required
    You can then convert it to PDF or send it by email if needed.

    Use the “Populate a Microsoft Word template” action to fill placeholders, then use “Create file” to generate a new document in SharePoint or OneDrive.
     
    Steps
    Prepare Word template
    • Store in SharePoint or OneDrive
    • Add Content Controls (Plain text, Rich text, Date, etc.)
    Create Cloud Flow
    • Trigger (manual / automated)
    Populate template
    • Action: Populate a Microsoft Word template
    • Map dynamic fields to content controls
    Create file
    • Action: Create file
    • Save generated document
