Create planner tasks from powerpoint slides

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 1

Hello!

I'm trying to build a flow that creats a task in MS Planner based on the title and body of each powerpoint slide in a powerpoint document found in a sharpoint library attached to MS teams.

  1. Find the pptx
    1. Get file content or get file content using path?
    2. Is there any way to find the title of each slide, or would this be possible if I converted to PDF first? 
  2. Find Title and body of each slide in the pptx
    1. I can see that there is no pptx connector but is there any way to fetch the actual content of the file with the meta data of heading/title/body etc attached?
  3.  Create tasks in planner 
    1. This part is pretty easy with a create task and update description as long as I can find the base data to add... I know how to do it from an excel sheet but is there any way to get from a powerpoint to either directly a teams task, or any in between steps using excel, word, pdf format?
