Java WordsApi enables you to format tables in a DOCX document using the Aspose.Words Cloud REST API. This guide walks you through configuring the environment, updating table design, and saving the modified Word file with the Java SDK. For more information about the DOCX format, see the DOCX file info page.
Prerequisite
- Create an account and get API credentials
- Download the Aspose.Words Cloud SDK for Java to update table format in a Word file
- Set up a Java project and add the above SDK to modify table design
Steps to Update Table Design in Word with Java REST API
- Instantiate the WordsApi class by providing the client ID and secret to format a table.
- Create an instance of the TableProperties class to define the desired table appearance.
- Identify the target table by specifying its index and the node path within the document.
- Call the UpdateTablePropertiesOnline() method, passing the prepared request object.
- Retrieve the resulting file from the API response and save it to disk.
These steps illustrate how to apply a new table design in a Word document using the Java REST API. You create and initialize a WordsApi object, build an UpdateTablePropertiesOnlineRequest, configure a TableProperties instance with the required settings, and finally invoke UpdateTablePropertiesOnline() to apply the changes.
Code to Set Word Table Properties with Java Low Code API
The sample demonstrates updating Word table settings with the Java Low Code API. The TableProperties class exposes attributes you can adjust to customize the table. Use the NodePath property in UpdateTablePropertiesOnlineRequest to point to the document section, and set the Index to target the specific table.
