context.document.body.search and range.search do not accept regular expressions (regex) as search patterns. The current wildcard language that is supported is far less capable. We have documents with lots of patterns that we look for via regular expressions and currently that is not possible with the javascript API. Please consider adding support for that.

Need Word online API to support "ShowHiddenText" in similar way performed with Word desktop method to support "ShowHiddenText"

I would like to be able to insert a control container with the selected text and with a mapping to a new customXMLNode (created by me)

My scenario is that I am creating a dataset in an office js task pane which I would like to feed into the native mail merge data source, this is available in the VSTO version of Office add ins by using the ActiveDocument.MailMerge.OpenDataSource(@path) method.

Currently I can only access non rich text content controls via ooxml. This is very cumbersome and error prone. It would be great if I could access items in dropdowns, checkbox values, or comboboxes without having to add the functionality in parsing ooxml.

i did not found any way to get current active page while reading data from Word document using Office AddIns API (JS).

So while my content is to large for search then i can move (scroll) document to that page from where this text (paragraph) was selected

please provide option to navigate bookmarks in the word document (office app javascript API)

This request is multi-part:

- Provide a way to find what/where a particular user has access and to what permissions level, both for administrators and to the end user without a resource intensive powershell script (today's method).

- Provide a built-in Permissions Administrator RBAC role that limits the administrators ability to only manage permissions (Access and Sending Rights) to a user or group. Provide them with a limited ECP view. No access to content, just Rights Management.

- Provide a Permissions Troubleshooting tool via the Remote Connectivity Analyzer.

getSelectedDataAsync only return text string (if there is text in selected shape). Would be great to return more info of selected shape, perhaps in OOXML/HTML form, or at least a shape ID.

When inserting a file from a base64 string into the body with the method "InsertFileFromBase64()" it does not include continious section breaks. It uses page breaks instead. It would be nice to have those working also.

The situation is we want to automaticlly add and choose specific theme for certain type of the document that has certain rules in font and size. So, can you help?

I tried in Chrome, Edge and IE. There is an angular.js error in the JavaScript console.

Using office app javascript API, It would be very useful if you add an option to navigate using the bookmark name

In Word, table rows mapped to custom XML part don't get updated correctly when the XML changes. The table doesn't adapt the the number of items. In other words, when the XML has X items mapped to a repeatable row, the table doesn't grow to accommodate the X items.

It will be nice if Office 366 API expose a single call to return all events from Users calendars.
Instead of, first getting all calendars to know the Ids, then for each calendar make another all to get events by passing Calendar ID

"I am attempting to do some automated fulfillment from managed code, The exchange management shell is installed on the server and the application will be running under credentials that have access. How do I do this without having to store the credentials?"

I'm developing a Word App which can add custom fonts(which are not installed yet) in Word.
My idea is that to take the Word as a HTML page by using the JavaScript API for Office v1.1 (Office.context.document.setSelectedDataAsync). With the CSS font-family setting , ex:
@font-face{font-family:fontname; src: url('http://xox.com/font/fontfile.eot');src: url('http://xox.com/font/fontfile.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),url('http://xox.com/font/fontfile.woff') format('woff');}
and the HTML tag setting, ex: <span style='font-family:fontname;'>Here shows the custom fonts...</span>

But the result is: Word accept the CSS style setting, but the web font style is not success. It still keeps the system font style.

I suggest Word can support web font.
