Update PDF file AND copy column values from one document library to another

Posted on by 45

Hi Community,

 

We have two document libraries. 

#1 - Secure Policy Library is where we store our policies in word, and editable only by management.

#2 - Public Policy Library is where users go to access policies, files are in PDF. 

 

We need to figure out how to:

  1. Convert the updated word doc in doc library #1 to PDF and update the PDF file in doc library #2
  2. Copy column value from #1 to #2 Example would be pulling "Date last approved" and "Approved by" from #1 to populate "Date last approved" and " Last approved by" in #2

Part a is partially done. Below is my flow, currently it creates a new file. To update the existing file in document library #2 do I replace create file with update file?

Would love some feedback with how to complete part b. Unsure of how to start on this one.

 

Thank You!
