NWC: Document Generation template and inserting collections?

I'm working with creating a Document Generation Template and using the Document Generation action in a Nintex Workflow Cloud workflow. 

 

I'd like to take the results of a collection (which may have any number of items) and populate them into a DocGen template. Unfortunatly, the document tagger doesn't seem to include the collection items, or any way to generate a table from them. I THINK the Office365 version of docgen does have this functionality, but I could be mistaken. 

 

I don't want to have to grab each item in the collection to a seperate variable, because I don't know how many items will be in the collection. I also can't just build a string in the workflow because there is no way to format that string into a table that the document template will recognize (HTML seems to just come in blank, for example). 

 

Any ideas on how to achieve this?

Document Generation for NWC unfortunately does not have Table functionality
Table functionality is available using Document Generation for O365.
You can create a O365 Component Workflow to do the doc gen and call it from a NWC workflow.
