Can you use a web service as a data source for mail

Question

Some of our customers want to use the data (SQL Server backend) in the web application that we developed to create some documents (agreements, contracts, etc.). They would also prefer to have document templates in a form that they are familiar with, and can easily generate new ones. My initial thought was to create a SQL Server Reporting Services data model that they could consume, but nevertheless they want, but SSRS can be an obstacle for them.

However, they are familiar with Microsoft Word and MailMerge, so I was wondering if there is a way to use the web service as the MailMerge data source or if there are any other suggestions to do the following:

• Our customers with medium technology will be able to create and manage document templates (it’s not necessary to be Word) that have user data in our database

• Get our database to provide data for your templates.

Answer 1

If you have a budget, you can check Windward's reports. I appreciated it for a law firm that was very looking for what you are describing. Then, as a result, the need arose for more specialized functions that Windward could do, but after its review it is quite capable.

But it is a little expensive. However, it may be cheaper than building something.
