This article outlines how to use the Insert as Document functionality within the Insert Field button in Word templates. This feature allows you to insert a document that is stored as a note in your Dynamics 365.

Step 1: Upload the document into your Dynamics 365 via the notes section.
In the note section, click on the paperclip to start uploading your file in your Dynamics 365. To finish click on the Add note button.
