Copy/Paste number from file to another app - Possible or not?

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

I would like to be able to click on a value in Word, Excel, Outlook email, etc. and have the selection paste into a search window in another app (Agile PLM, an Oracle PLM tool). Is this even possible? So the idea is that all day I am looking up documents. I double click the word or doc number in Word, Excel, Outlook, etc.   Copy it. Move to the other search field in Agile PLM,  then paste and hit CR.

I do not know if this is even possible or where to start looking.

Thanks

Marty

    Power Automate Desktop would be your only possible solution for this kind of thing in the Power Platform.
