Is there a way to have the Google Doc automation create documents from a pre-existing template?
I want to set up the new automation to generate letters, however, I need them to have a specific header and footer. If there was a functionality to select a template that would be great. But if anyone knows of a way to generate that on Google’s App Script end that would be super helpful!

I don’t know scripting, but most people go low-code with this by using something like Make.com or On2Air: Actions. You could also use DocuMint, which has its own document template editor.
