Renaming Default Worksheet in Excel Created via Power Automate

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 162

Hello community,

 

I am working on a Power Automate flow where I create an Excel file and a table within it. The process automatically generates a worksheet named "Sheet1," but I would like to customize this sheet name.

Could someone guide me on how to rename the default worksheet created by Power Automate in Excel to a name of my choice? Any insights or step-by-step instructions would be greatly appreciated.

    There's no action that can directly do it, you'd need to do it custom through an Office Script. 

    Here's an example of one that has been posted:

    Hi, I create excel File following the steps in this video
    Create a new Excel File in Power Automate and dynamically populate with a Table and Rows #Excel (youtube.com)

    and to customize the Sheet name, I rename the sheet1 in the empty Excel file that is used as a template.

    It works fine!
