  1. Templates - Excel

Fields

You need to provide placeholders in the document template (field name in curly brackets).

PreviousCharts & DiagramsNextSections / Tables

Last updated 3 days ago

If the same field is repeated in other parts of the template we will detect that and fill the document accordingly (with the value provided only once).

Fields could be used inside Sections

Cell Type and Data Type

If you define cell type (e.g. Number, Date...) data type passed in respective field should match cell with placeholder.

Service can automatically convert numbers (if they are valid Excel numbers) passed as string if type of cell is Number or Currency

Recommended Field Name Rules

Omit special characters and spaces in field name. It will be easier to refer them in Smart Fields

We recommend camelCase rules for field naming e.g. fieldWithMultipleWords. If you want to use fields in Smart Sections & Smart Fields please also omit numbers and special characters in field names
