Question

insertooxml error

Answer 1

Hi @y jacky

Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Q&A Forum.  

I understand you are encountering an "Unspecified error" when using the insertOoxml method in your Word Add-in. Based on the error message and the location pointer (Line: 1, Column: 79), this issue may be caused by the OOXML string itself being invalid for an insertion operation. 

As a forum moderator, I can help guide discussions and share insights based on public documentation and community knowledge. However, I don't have access to internal engineering resources or the ability to provide solutions from a product development perspective. I would like to refer you to some of the official articles below to see examples of correctly formatted OOXML for insertion and best practices: 

 Office Add-ins documentation: Insert OOXML:  

 Working with OOXML in Word Add-ins:  

 Office Common API error codes - Office Add-ins | Microsoft Learn 

 Word add-in tutorial - Office Add-ins | Microsoft Learn 

Please update the plugin and Word: Check to see if the plug-in has been updated and if you have the latest version of Word. Outdated plug-ins and software may cause compatibility issues. 

However, due to limitations in this area, I regret that I’m unable to assist you effectively. I would highly recommend contacting the official Microsoft Power Platform Community Forum Thread directly. This is a platform that brings together experts and can give you a more in-depth perspective on the issue. 

Thank you for your patiences and I truly hope it gets resolved for you soon
