Creating a PDF from HTML and saving in Sharepoint

Posted on by michael34

I have a flow that creates an HTML document containing information from a SharePoint list; the HTML is then converted to a PDF, and saved to a folder in OneDrive.

Is there a way to convert the HTML document to a PDF and save it in a SharePoint folder? If not, what is the best option?

@michael34 Yes there is a way.

When you do action Create File, Instead of doing "Create File OneDrive" - Choose "Create File SharePoint"
I hope this helps 🙂

I've tried that, and encountered two problems.

The first time I tested it, I got the error message: 'A file with the same name is currently being saved to this site. Change the filename and try to save again.'

So I changed the resultant file name, tested it again, and got a 'File Not Found' error message.

Hi @michael34 ,

'A file with the same name is currently being saved to this site. Change the filename and try to save again.'

Please add a unique value into the file name to avoid this issue. For example:

'File Not Found' error message

Please check first if the filename has special characters then you should omit those special characters. On your side , please remove the '#' from the file name.

Best Regards,

The '#' was the issue, thank you. It now works swimmingly.
