I am trying to open a base64 encoded file in Word Online, using the code below based on .
function displayContents(myBase64) {
Word.run(function (context) {
console.log(Office.context.requirements.isSetSupported("WordApi", "1.1"));
// Create a proxy object for the document.
var thisDocument = context.document;
// Queue a command to clear the body contents.
thisDocument.body.clear();
thisDocument.body.insertFileFromBase64(myBase64, "replace");
// Create a proxy object for the default selection.
//var mySelection = thisDocument.getSelection();
// Queue a command to insert the file into the current document.
//mySelection.insertFileFromBase64(myBase64, "replace");
// Synchronize the document state by executing the queued commands,
// and return a promise to indicate task completion.
return context.sync();
})
.catch(function (error) {
console.log('Error: ' + JSON.stringify(error));
if (error instanceof OfficeExtension.Error) {
console.log('Debug info: ' + JSON.stringify(error.debugInfo));
}
});
}
This does not work (using body.insertFileFromBase64 or myselection.insertFileFromBase64). The code does function in the regular version of Word. I receive the following error:
Error: "name":"OfficeExtension.Error", "code":"GeneralException", "message":"This browser does not support the requested API.", "traceMessages":[],"debugInfo":{}} LoadOfficeDoc.js:51 Debug info: {}
Office.context.requirements.isSetSupported("WordApi", "1.1") returns true.
Am I doing something wrong or is this functionality not available online?
