Modify the sharepoint file url and add bookmark information

In the word file we are able to insert the hyperlink for bookmark (something like bookmark://BookMark1). And when user click on the link it will jump to the pointed bookmark.

I am wondering are we able to add it in the file url? When user open the file, the page should jump to bookmark place directly based on the bookmark information that provided by url.

I need some help finding a way to pass the bookmark information to the Office365 side via url or api or some other smart way if it is possible. Thanks!

    Hey there, as I know (may be wrong, but), there isn’t a built-in feature in SharePoint or Office 365 that allows you to directly pass bookmark information via a url to open a word document at a specific bookmark. When you open a Word document from SharePoint or Office 365, it typically opens at the beginning of the document. But, you can create hyperlinks in the Word document itself that link to specific bookmarks within the document. When a user clicks on one of these hyperlinks, they will be taken to the corresponding bookmark. If you’re looking to automate this process or implement a more advanced solution, you might consider using the Office 365 Management APIs or Microsoft Graph. These APIs provide a wide range of functionality for interacting with Office 365 and could potentially be used to create a custom solution.
