Hello, I am trying to creating loop through some array variables containing document data. 

<<if [AppendixA != “”]>>

<<foreach [Appendix in AppendixA]>>

<<doc [Appendix.Document] -build >>

<</foreach>>

<<else>>

<</if>>

 

<<if [AppendixB != “”]>>

<<foreach [Appendix in AppendixB]>>

<<doc [Appendix.Document] -build >>

<</foreach>>

<<else>>

<</if>>

 

<<if [AppendixC != “”]>>

<<foreach [Appendix in AppendixC]>>

<<doc [Appendix.Document] -build >>

<</foreach>>

<<else>>

<</if>>

 

<<if [AppendixD != “”]>>

<<foreach [Appendix in AppendixD]>>

<<doc [Appendix.Document] -build >>

<</foreach>>

<<else>>

<</if>>

 

However, the final document does not have its placeholders populated and I am missing the headers/footers from the documents. Is there a way to achieve both within the foreach?

  Hello,
  
  Based on the ticket answer, to allow dynamic Header and footers, you will need to follow the Microsoft word guidance.
  https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/office/configure-headers-and-footers-for-different-sections-of-a-document-94332643-a6e9-46aa-ab29-064f1d356db6
  
  As the action follows the formatting rules set in the word Template.
  
  For your missing placeholders, please ensure that you are passing the correct files that contain the syntax placeholders on them.
  And that you are passing the placeholder data as part of the array with the document as you have displayed.
