    Merci pour cette vidéo François. J'ai créé un sharepoint IT pour l'entreprise le mois passé, et j'apprends à utiliser flow. La vidéo était très claire et m'a permis de créer un générateur de reception form.

    I would like to populate one Word document with multiple lines from one sharepoint list. Is that possible?

      Yes, I have done this for instance with multiple line address. Give it a try

    Hi, thanks for the tip,but have a problem. I want to ask why when i choose "when item is created", mine shows the field names (from the SP list), unlike yours which only has "site address" and "list name" (mine has it as well).
    I dont know this is related or not but my Word document is not populated by the newly created item in SP List and returning blank values. hope you understand what i mean. Have a nice day

      sorry about the delay. Did you figure it out? I would look into the "talking" between SharePoint and Word.. making sure that there is no login issue, re-install Word even ...

      no need for premium, unless this has changed in the features model again. Anyone else here tried recently?

    Hi there! This is exactly what I was looking for but I a little bit more in depth help. Is there any way I can connect with you off line and possibly hire you to assist me? I have a sharepoint list and a word document. I need to mail merge certain rows based on certain criteria. I am having a ton of trouble trying to get this to work and your video cut off without going further. My company just migrated to using Office 365 from google and I am so frustrated! Thank you in advance for your hepl!

      Keep experimenting to find the solution, and look at third party like Plumsail may help too accelerate.

    Hi Francois, Thank you for sharing this video, I was really looking for this solution on how to populate list data to SP. I couldn't see the rest of the flow. the video ended before showing if the flow was successful or not. the reason I am asking is I don't have access to premium connectors. I want to make sure this works so I can ask my manager to get approval to get access to the premium connector.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi Francois, first of all thank you for taking the time and effort to make a video, much appreciated! As you already heard the ending was bit premature (it's really hard to not make a joke out of this one). What I'm really curious about is the maximum length of the fields you are populating. Or to be more specific; can you populate a field with more than 255 characters using this premium connector? Because I've made this work without using premium connectors, however that puts a limit to the length of the fields to be populated (which is a Word/Office limitation, really). I suspect the premium connector has the same problem...

      that sounds like an incorrect format type, check extension and format encoding.

      yes, it is now Premium. And it is unlikely to find a Doc Gen tool for free nowadays.🤥
