My goal is to Split an excel workbook such that there is only one sheet per Excel workbook.
 
@DamoBird365 I used your video reference from youtube and followed the steps.
 
The issue is -
 
The second script (Deletesheets.osts) does not run in powerautomate and it gives me this error:

You can see here the code I am using for the office script is the same from the video

B- office script code I am using.
 
 
I would appreciate help from this community, since I have been breaking my head on this task since last week.
 
Appreciate your time and help in advance.
 
Thanks.

    I figured the issue I had.

    Need to toggle on the right so that it takes the input as an array.

    But you shouldn't.  Better to have a dedicated file that hosts the scripts, but is otherwise not involved in the flows.

    I am not sure, what you mean by script hosted in the specific file or not? I can access all my office scripts through any new excel file I create.

    is the office script hosted in the file you are trying to modify?
