External links

Create PPTX document from template action allows you to add dynamic hyperlinks to a location on the web, as well as endnotes and footnotes.

You can download the source document and the result document for the example described below in links. Let us assume we have a list of online learning resources. JSON representation of the object:

[
    {
        "name": "The Open University",
        "description": "Distance and online courses. Qualifications range from certificates, diplomas and short courses to undergraduate and postgraduate degrees.",
        "linkName": "Go to the site",
        "linkURL": "http://www.openuniversity.edu/courses"
    },
    {
        "name": "Coursera",
        "description": "Online courses from top universities like Yale, Michigan, Stanford, and leading companies like Google and IBM.",
        "linkName": "Go to the site",
        "linkURL": "https://plato.stanford.edu/"
    },
    {
        "name": "edX",
        "description": "Flexible learning on your schedule. Access more than 1900 online courses from 100+ leading institutions including Harvard, MIT, Microsoft, and more.",
        "linkName": "Go to the site",
        "linkURL": "https://www.edx.org/"
    }
]

Now, let us take a look at the source template for this structure:

External links template

We designed a table with a header and just one row that contains our tags. The templating engine is smart enough to understand what content needs to be duplicated.

To refer properties of the objects we just used the names of the properties:

{{name}}, {{description}}, {{linkName}}, {{linkURL}}.

To create a hyperlink to a location on the web we select the text that we want to display as a hyperlink, in the Insert tab in MS Word, click Link, navigate to the Existing File or Web Page tab and add a tag into the Address field:

Insert hyperlink: URL
