Are there limitations with the number of Repeating Section Content Controls (Power Automate)?

Hi everyone,
 
Thanks in advance for trying to help with my problem.
 
I have a Word template with 6 Repeating Section Content Controls. In Power Automate, when I use 'Populate a Microsoft Word template' action, only 2 of those Repeating Section Content Controls will show up.
They are working fine though, that is not the problem :-).
 
Is there a limitation in the number of RSCC in one template?
 
Thanks again,
 
Femke

    I have found the solution to this problem, while rereading my own post (sometimes it helps just to write everything down...):
     
    You have to make every Plain Text Content Control (within the RSCC) unique. Now Power Automate recognizes the 6 different tables.
