Splitting a PDF file

Posted on by IWantToKnow

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 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.

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 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.
