I have a web app that created documents from a user-provided template. The template is stored in my cloud storage solution. The web app will generate the document by substituting data from a database into the template. I want my users to be able to edit the template (docx) securely, using MS word desktop or online, and hit "Save" in word and have the saved changes reflected in the template stored in the app. What are my options? I need localized storage, so the Cloud Storage Partner Program will not work (we were rejected).
