Unfortunately, I don't think PowerApps can do what you're after. It could amend the filename of a file, but it is not able to convert file types like that.

Hi @at615209 :

Agree with @BCLS776 ,I'm afraid that is not available.But you can embed a flow into powerapps to achieve similar functions.

The Flow:

In PowerApps:

1\Add the flow into the app

2\Add a button and set it's OnSelect property to:

'PowerAppV2->Getfilecontent,Deletefile,Getfileproperties,Crea...'.Run(443)

Best Regards,

Bof
