Mail Merge Methods

Help

I want to perform the Mail Merge action in word.
Is it a feature in UIPath software, or I need to begin using opening word and then the mail merge wizard.

If so, how do i proceed with the mail merging activity?

Thanks!

Hi @nesachdeva,

There is no activities for mail merge as such, however you can do it via UiAutomation (actions what a user does) or you can create a custom activity for it (Code sample > c# - Sending text to Mail-Merge Fields in Microsoft Word 2010 - Stack Overflow)

Regards,

Okay. Any suggestions on optimizing the workflow, with some inbuilt features of UIPath?
