Word plugin - Validate

After creating your automated template, check if the references to iSheet data are still valid. The
Validate
option will check the
Site
,
iSheets
,
iSheet Views
and
Columns
you have in your template associations and template automation and:
  • if any of the above have been renamed then it will update the template automation to mirror that
  • if any of the above have been deleted then it will check through the template and highlight in red any items that are no longer valid

How to Validate

To validate your template click on
Validate
. Validation will be performed and a message will notify you if any issues exist.
You will also see a full
Validation Report
in the right-hand panel with a list of automation items that need your attention.
Example of a deleted Column
In the example below the Column 'Registration number' was deleted from the iSheet after it was used in the automation of the template.
A message notifies the user that the column association doesn't exist anymore. The automation using the column is highlighted in red and it is also listed as an item in the
Validation report
in the right-hand panel.
After correcting any issues highlighted during validation, you can view a preview of the template.
