I am very new to this program, but I'm wondering if there's a way to automatically update an index in Acrobat when a PDF(s) is added to a folder?

    If you are referring to a folder on a local computer, you can deploy a data gateway on your system and set a trigger for when a file is created. This will invoke your desktop flow, where you can access the newly created PDF file.

     

    Then, you can open the Acrobat application and use UI automation packages, along with recordings, to update the index.

     

    If the folder is on OneDrive or SharePoint, you will need to adjust the trigger point slightly, but the rest remains the same.
