Automate word to download image by URL
Hi everyone!
I've been working in my life with word only for the basics, but recently i got a job and there they gave a task that envolves automation and word.
Well, i have to insert a image in the word document using the URL that will be informed. So, i tried to use the "INCLUDEPICTURE" tag, but it only works if i do manually. Is there any other way i could do this?
This is how it all needs to happen:
- Person will fullfill the form and submit it to the system;
- The system will use the datas to generate a first document;
- The system will make a API requisition, generate a QRCODE, and save the link of the QRCODE image;
- The system will generate a new Word 2016 document with the QRCODE inserted in it.
But I couldn't figure out how to insert the image automatically using a tag and link.
Here's a example image link: < https://chart.googleapis.com/chart?chs=200x200&cht=qr&chl=teste >
And here is how i'm inserting data on the document.
Can anyone help me?
