Checkbox content control is now supported in Word API 1.7 release: Word JavaScript API requirement set 1.7 - Office Add-ins | Microsoft Learn

@Yun_Wang Are there plans/or working on support for the other content control types as well?

I would also be very interested in dropdown support.

I was able to develop a working prototype of my application in VBA, but now I need to rewrite it in JS for production.

I filled out the survey form.

Thank you

@Sjoerd112 Can you submit new request for the new content control types?

[Yun_Wang]

@pascalbourut Thanks for submitting the request. Dropdown is in our pipeline, and I will update this post if there's new information.
