Generate doc from Power App form and Word template, send for signature

Create a Power Automate flow to generate a custom document every time a Power Apps form is completed and send it for signature with Acrobat Sign.

Overview

Generate custom documents every time a Power Apps form is completed, using form data and Word templates in SharePoint. Then send the document for signature with Adobe Sign and notify your Teams channel once signed.

Sample templates for Document Generation can be found at https://www.adobe.com/go/pdfservices_templates.

Prerequisites

  • Must have a valid Acrobat Sign account.
  • Must have access to Adobe PDF Services API.
  • Requires a valid SharePoint online account.
  • Must have a valid Teams account.
  • The SharePoint file and Teams channel must be configured before running the flow.

  4. The Create a flow page loads showing:

    • The editable Flow name. This is the same name as the original template, which can be edited.
    • The Connectors that are required for the flow to be completed. 
      • Connector is a wrapper around the API code, providing a friendly interface to collect the information required to authenticate each necessary service and to personalize the flow for a specific user's needs. You must establish the authenticated connection first. You are prompted to provide any required information the connector demands in a following step.
      • To authenticate a Connector, select the three dots next to the Connector. An authentication panel for the service (application) will pop up where the user's credentials can be entered.
        Once successfully authenticated, a persistent connection is established between the service and Power Automate.
        A green check next to the three dots indicates an authenticated connection exists.

    Authenticate each Connector under the Sign in section.

  5. Select Next when all Connectors are authenticated.
