Entering items from an excel file to a form

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by
I have a simple excel file with 500 rows and one column. The column is Quantity. I need to fill in a form that contains 10 lines, a repeat button, and a submit button. I need to select the Repeat button on the first go around only. This will allow me to fill in the first 10 lines, click submit, and have the next 10 lines appear automatically. How do I get PowerAutomate to enter the first ten lines from the excel file, click the submit button, wait for the screen to refresh, enter the next 10 lines, click the submit button, etc... until all lines are entered?

    Since Flows are "Server-side", there's no provision for performing actions against the Presentation Layer, where the button is. 
     
    Where does the data go when the Submit button is pressed? If it's a list or table somewhere, then why not just stuff the data directly there, and cut out the form.
     
    What is this Form? Can you use PowerApps to replicate the Form? 
     
    What are you actually doing or trying to accomplish?
