How to include ObjectID in MS Word Report Template?

[AdminAccount2]

Is there a way to include the feature's ObjectID in the MS Word tempate used for generating a report?

${ObjectID} does not seem to work. Thanks!

Create a new attribute and populate it with ObjectID before generating the report

Yes, of course I could do that, but that's not ideal. There's lot's of other hidden fields in there as well that I'd like to know how to access if there's a way to do that without duplicating all those with new fields just so I can print them.

My question remains - Is there a way to access these hidden field types like ObjectID using the correct syntax in the Word template?

Access the Database via MS Access.  However does not work with File Geodatabase

Hi Keith,

You may need to check the precise name of the Object ID field.  For example, the field name or a survey published by Survey123 is objectid (all lower case), though the alias is 'ObjectID'.  Therefore, ${objectid} should work in a template.

Thanks very much James, that worked!
