contentControl.insertOoxml adds extra list item - Javascript API for Office












0















I'm trying to insert a bullet list using ContentControl.insertOoxml using Javascript WordApi1.1. This behavior already works for WordApi1.3 as expected - however, we have an enterprise customer that is unable to update their version at the moment.



Example list:




  • Bullet 1

  • Bullet 2


Insert to the Body object works:



Body.insertOoxml(ooxml, "Start")



  • Bullet 1

  • Bullet 2


Inserting to ContentControl does not:



ContentControl.insertOoxml(ooxml, "Replace") 



  • Bullet 1

  • Bullet 2




OOXML (I only included the document/main part here for readability.):



<pkg:part pkg:name="/word/document.xml" pkg:contentType="application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document.main+xml">
<pkg:xmlData>
<w:document xmlns:w='http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/wordprocessingml/2006/main'>
<w:body>
<w:p xmlns:w="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/wordprocessingml/2006/main" w:rsidP="00F20242" w:rsidRDefault="00F20242" w:rsidR="00F20242">
<w:pPr>
<w:pStyle w:val="ListParagraph" />
<w:numPr>
<w:ilvl w:val="0" />
<w:numId w:val="1" />
</w:numPr>
</w:pPr>
<w:r>
<w:rPr>
<w:shd w:val="clear" w:fill="FF0000" w:color="auto" />
</w:rPr>
<w:t>Bullet 1</w:t>
</w:r>
</w:p>
<w:p xmlns:w="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/wordprocessingml/2006/main" w:rsidP="00F20242" w:rsidRDefault="00F20242" w:rsidR="00F20242">
<w:pPr>
<w:pStyle w:val="ListParagraph" />
<w:numPr>
<w:ilvl w:val="0" />
<w:numId w:val="1" />
</w:numPr>
</w:pPr>
<w:r>
<w:rPr>
<w:shd w:val="clear" w:fill="FF0000" w:color="auto" />
</w:rPr>
<w:t>Bullet 2</w:t>
</w:r>
</w:p>
</w:body>
</w:document>
</pkg:xmlData>




Here is the full ooxml



Word 2016 build 16.0.6001.1061 on Windows 10.



Is this a Microsoft bug that can be fixed without our customer upgrading the API? Is something wrong with the ooxml? Any suggestions on how to workaround the extra bullet?



PS. We also noticed that ContentControl.getOoxml() does not return the w:numbering package using WordApi 1.1. We worked around this problem using getFileAsync to fetch the whole document.
