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.

    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!

    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:
