Automate meeting documentation with SharePoint, Word, Excel & Outlook

What this template does Receives meeting data via a webform, cleans/structures it, fills a Word docx template, uploads the file to SharePoint, appends a row to Excel 365, and sends an Outlook email with the document attached. Good to know Uses a community node: DocxTemplater to render the DOCX from a template. Install it from the Community Nodes catalog. The template context is the workflow item JSON. In your docx file, use placeholders. Includes a minimal HTML form snippet (outside n8n) you can host anywhere. Replace the placeholder WEBHOOK_URL with your Webhook URL before testing. Microsoft nodes require Azure app credentials with correct permissions (SharePoint, Excel/Graph, Outlook). How it works Webhook — Receives meeting form JSON (POST). Code (Parse Meeting Data) — Parses/normalizes fields, builds semicolon‑separated strings for attendees/absentees, and flattens discussion points / action items. SharePoint (Download) — Fetches the DOCX template (e.g., meeting_minutes_template.docx). Merge — Combines template binary + JSON context by position. DocxTemplater — Renders meeting_{{now:yyyy-MM-dd}}.docx using the JSON context. SharePoint (Upload) — Saves the generated DOCX to a target folder (e.g., /Meetings). Microsoft Excel 365 (Append) — Appends a row to your sheet (Date, Time, Attendees, etc.). Microsoft Outlook (Send message) — Emails the generated DOCX as an attachment.
