Merge PDF File not existing

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Birdyaus 17

Hi there, 

 

I am trying to merge pdf files that have been filtered into a list from a one drive account. 

 

And I either get the error that the file doesn't exist or that my list is not a list of files. 

 

here is the flow:

the list produced looks like this 

Birdyaus_1-1699314584924.png

Birdyaus_2-1699314745700.png

 

If I change the input to Currentitems.Path the error becomes that the file doesn't exist.

Thank you,

    The files you get from OneDrive are not actual file variables. That is binary data. You need to use Convert binary data to file on each of them to save them as actual files on your local machine. When you've done that, put those file paths into a list and then you can use Merge PDF files on them to merge them.
