Tag Syntax

Docamint tags allow you to insert dynamic data, loop through arrays, and conditionally show content inside Word templates.

Basics

Interpolation

Interpolation inserts a value from your JSON or XML payload:

{{customer.name}}
{{order.number}}
{{invoice.total}}
          

Nested fields are supported:

{{customer.address.city}}
{{order.shipping.method}}
          

Loops

Loops ({{#each}})

Use loops to repeat content for each item in an array:

{{#each order.items}}
• {{this.name}} - Qty: {{this.qty}}, Total: {{this.total | currency}}
{{/each}}
          

Inside loops, {{this}} refers to the current item.

{{#each payments}}
Payment on {{this.date}}: {{this.amount | currency}}
{{/each}}
          

Logic

Conditionals ({{#if}})

Show or hide content based on a condition:

{{#if customer.vip}}
Thank you for being a VIP customer!
{{/if}}
          

You can also check if a field exists:

{{#if order.discount}}
Discount Applied: {{order.discount | currency}}
{{/if}}
          

Advanced

Nested Loops & Conditionals

Docamint supports nested loops and nested conditionals:

{{#each customers}}
Customer: {{this.name}}

{{#each this.orders}}
  Order {{this.number}} - Total: {{this.total | currency}}
{{/each}}

{{/each}}
          

Escaping

Escaping Tags

If you need to show tag syntax literally (for documentation or training), escape it:

\{{customer.name}}

Docamint will output {{customer.name}} instead of replacing it.
