Perform a search in PDF file

Posted on by 4

Hi,

 

I m using power automate desktop. I want to extract data from excel and perform a search in a PDF file. When there is a successful search, it will update in excel on another column.

 

I can see that there is very limited function using PDF. So another idea is to extract text from pdf and put it in database? and use SQL statement to do the search. However, i m not very familiar on how to execute this. Any help would be great.
