    Hi @Anonymous 

     

    Currently this feature is not supported by Power Automate.

     

    Please consider voting for a similar idea to be supported by MS Flow.

    Hi @Anonymous, 

     

    Unfortunately, there is no way to append the checkbox into the Microsoft Word template in MS Flow currently.

    The formats support are text and picture.

    Hi everyone, 

    It's an old limitation many users struggle with. I tried a solution that could help you populate a Word document template with checkboxes. I use the Plumsail Documents connector and action Start documents generation process. 

    I recommend you to read the article. That solution is not free, but there is a free 30-day trial, so you will have enough time to try it.
