Creating a word document from powerapps based on choice

[Santosh_M]

Hi,

I am working on a process to create a word document using powerapps and flow. I am able to achieve the mapping now. As an extended requirement, we need to map the values to word doument, when users selects a specific value from dropdown field. 

As an example, we have 3 choices, A, B, C. We want to map the value to word document, only if A is selected and ignore if B or C is selected. 

Is it possible to achieve? Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Santhosh

Hi @Santosh_M ,

Do you want to populate a value to word document if the dropdown selection is A, otherwise, leave it blank?

Please try with the following configuration.

First, set up the flow likes below.

Add a PowerApps button trigger, then the action Populate a Microsoft Word template. In the field that you want to populate the value, select the dynamic content Ask in PowerApps first, then replace it with the following code:

if(equals(triggerBody()['PopulateaMicrosoftWordtemplate_selection'],'A'),triggerBody()['PopulateaMicrosoftWordtemplate_selection'],'')

Then the action Create file to create the file with the content from the template.

Second, start an app, add a button and a dropdown control on the app.

Set the Dropdown control’s Items property as:

["A","B","C"]

Set the button’s OnSelect property as:

'PowerApp->PopulateaMicrosoftWordtemplate'.Run(Dropdown1.Selected.Value)

Then when the selection is A, value A will be populated into the word template, if the selection is B or C, the field will be blank.

Please try it on your side.

Best regards,

Mabel

Thanks Mabel. This really helped me to address my issue. I just want to also know, if it is possible not to show up entire line. Like there is a parameter against which this value is mapped. And if we dont select A, i dont want to show the even parameter. Possible?

Thanks again !
