Populating a word document and saving it in a onedrive

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Hi!

 

Currently I am doing a flow where a word document is generated from a SharePoint List, it runs using a Template word document with content controls. However, the word document generated after the flow does not allow me to edit the content control populated by the flow, is there any work around for this? I have tried coverting to a 2003 word format and converting it back but is there any way to prevent this? Thank you!

    Hi! So essentially im just getting items from my SharePoint List, and using 'Select' to compile all items such that i have rows in the word template, then using a template to populate and creating a file.
