Splitting a PDF file

Hi,

I would appreciate help with this: 

The flow starts by prompting the user to select a file.

However, I'm Looking for an efficient and simple way to split a pdf dynamically.  

For example: A file has 20 sheets, the first 3  sheets are for one client, next 5 are for a second client and so on...They all have a similar structure so I can specify where each client's form starts and ends.

Please advise,

Thank you!

    I know you are a moderator, but do you ever do search for thing before answering a question. See below:
     
    He literally asked for a Cloud flow not Desktop and you sent a video with "Power Automate Desktop" in the title.

    If you don’t want to use paid 3rd party connectors, you can set up your own Azure Function to split PDFs by text like this

    I posted here because I'm using a cloud flow rather than a desktop flow.

    I'm aware of many paid connectors. I'm looking for a free workaround.
