Document.getBookmarkRange

Gets a bookmark's range. Throws an error if the bookmark does not exist.

Document.getBookmarkRangeOrNullObject

Gets a bookmark's range. Returns a null object if the bookmark does not exist.

Document.deleteBookmark

Deletes a bookmark, if it exists, from the document.

Range.getBookmarks

Gets the names all bookmarks in or overlapping the range. A bookmark is hidden if its name starts with the underscore character.

Range.insertBookmark

Inserts a bookmark on the range. If a bookmark of the same name exists somewhere, it is deleted first.
when we insertText, a new range is returned, we need to use that range to insertBookmark.

Word.run(function (context) 
{ 
    let range = context.document.getSelection(); 
    return context.sync().then(function () 
    { 
        let insertedTextRange = range.insertText(`Test Bookmark`, Word.InsertLocation.replace); 

        let uniqueStr = new Date().getTime(); 
        let bookmarkName = `Test_BookmarkCode_${uniqueStr}`; 
        insertedTextRange.insertBookmark(bookmarkName); 
    }); 
});
