Hello Reza! Big fan of your videos and have learned a lot from you. Is there a way to use a dynamically-created MS Word template with the "populate a Microsoft Word template" connector? I'm trying to populate template fields into a copy of a standard template that is created within the workflow, but since the template copy hasn't been created yet the connector has no content controls to find/display. If I use the original template to populate the content control fields, then change the filename to a variable filename, the content controls disappear. Help (and thank you in advance)!

Very nice. I just used this feature last week to create a label based on Sharepoint List inputs for our one of our Groups. Thankfully I had already been granted Premium Features by our IT Group so that I could use it. Only issue was sharing the Power Automate Flow in a Power App so that others can run it who didn't have Premium Licenses, so I chose to have folks run the Flow as Me. Hopefully that's not an issue with the Microsoft folks. However, it may cause an issue if I have to leave the organization for whatever reason. Someone else would probably have to take over the Automate Flow that also has Premium. I did notice that Premium didn't show up on the Office 365 Example, the first one. Is it not a Premium feature there?

@@RezaDorrani I had someone without a license test, and they were able to run the power automate flow without an issue. The first example. When you were in Office 365, when you searched Word, Word Online (Business) pops up and the Populate a Word Template doesn't have Premium next to it like in the Sharepoint example.

Hi Reza Dorrani sir, Good Afternoon!! I have a list of assets with a column named "Office Location" containing values such as Delhi, Bangalore and Mumbai. I also have another list named "Roles" which contains two columns: "User" and "Location". The data Presented shows that for the same user, let's say "Raju" we have different locations such as Delhi, Bangalore, Mumbai and so on. My requirement is to use a gallery control to display data where the office locations from the assets list match with the locations present in the roles list. Please give me Answer for my requirement ASAP. Thanks & Regards, Sanjam Ugandhar.
