Use Document Variables and Docvariable fields instead of Document Properties.
@ Doug_Robbins_Word_MVP ok if we use document variables can we populate them using Power Automate as we do for document properties ?

@john john I am not up to speed with Power Automate as Visual Basic is my speciality.

 

However, see

I have not watched them, but they came up on Google when I searched for "Using Power Automate to set value of Word document variable"

Also take a look at the following pages of Greg Maxey's website :
