Download all attachments from a PDF?

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by PatrickMcLeanGL

I have a list of about 100 pdfs with anywhere from 1-100 attachments in each PDF that I want to download and store in appropriately named folders.

 

Is there an easy way to do this? If not, is there an easy way to at least extract the URLs of the attachments to a spreadsheet that I can then have PAD run through?

    @PatrickMcLeanGL 

     

    Your queery is confusing by the number of PDFs being mention along with Lists and Libaries.

     

    I think you have a lot of PDF's that are all over the place that yopu want to store in certian folders that may or maynot exist at this time.  And that you want to use the DESKTOP version of Flow to help with this. 

     

    Well I am not an expert in the DESKTOP version of Flow but from my knowledge fo the CLOUD version I do not think you will be able to do what you want to do.  I belive the only way you are goibng to do this is to it the manual way.

     

    Regards,

    That connector doesn't work for this case because they aren't inline attachments, just URLs to a Salesforce file.
