Send populated word template as an attachment

Posted on by 35

Hello,

I have a custom action with a workflow that send an email message with a word template populated with the employee name as an attachment.

the problem is that the word template is not being populated.

my resource is from this blog post: https://linnzawwin.blogspot.com/2022/10/generate-document-from-word-template.html

Can please someone help how can I figure it out?

    Yes, the unbound action is getting the template id and the employee id. The status code is 204

    Does those fields have value when your power automate is triggered?  we faced the same issue then we changed our trigger point

    We had similar requirements also and we implemented it below:

    We write action to dynamically export and save word templates in notes on related records.

    Then we call that action in our power automate. So, our web template is exported and saved in notes. Then we send an email with notes attachment and after that we deleted those notes because there is no need to keep word temaplete in notes.
