Big broad question (sorry for the long post):
My org is slowly moving toward flows to implement automations.
We have a business process that requires us to generate a bunch (like, 30) documents (Word but could be pdf) with merged data.
Right now we use Nintex DocGen to do the merge, and call Nintex from an old-school button with URL, one record at a time. So, 30 records = 30 clicks and 30 merged documents.
We want to move to a mass-merge-type business process so our staff can click a button once and generate one document that contains 30 pages, one page per record.
Feels like a flow (with a loop to gather the appropriate records for merge) is going to be the way to go...but that would require a doc merge add-on that provides a component callable from a flow which can do mass document generation (i.e., hand the component a collection of records to merge, using a template, into 30 pages of the same template info but with each record's merge field data on a separate page). Would allow our staff to print just once to get the 30 paper documents.
So the question to the community is: are there any 3rd party add-ons that provide a flow Action component which knows how to do mass document merge? Nintex does have something close, but I would like to know my options before committing to a solution.
Seems like flow Actions are the future for this sort of thing...
Or...is there another way to skin this cat?
