Aggregating data from Excel

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi, 

 

This is my first time using Power Automate, and I'm trying to create (what I hope to be) a pretty simple flow. Was wondering if someone could help me out?

 

What I'm trying to do:

- Open all excel files in a specific folder

- Grab specific data from each excel file

- copy data into new excel file

- Save Excel file

 

Any chance someone here could take me through how to get this done? Thank you so much!

    Hi @Anonymous ,

     

    Could you please tell me the data structure is the same for all excel files? If not, I think this requirement is difficult to achieve.

     

    I have made a test for your reference, but based on the premise that all excel files have exactly the same data structure and table names.

    1. Here are my excel files.

    2. Create a flow.
