Posted on by 2

Hello community,

 

I’m new to power automate. 
I have multiple base64 codes which I want to simply insert it a textInput control in PowerApps, and using a Button in PA, it should trigger a flow which executes the conversion of PDF to a Sharepoint library or OneDrive. Can anyone help me with this solution? screenshots should help.

    HI,

     

    You can start  by creating a flow that converts base64 codes to PDF and saves it to a SharePoint library or OneDrive. Here are the steps to create the flow:

    1. Create a new flow in Power Automate.
    2. Add a PowerApps trigger and select the TextInput control that contains the base64 code.
    3. Add a Create file action and select the PDF format.
    4. Choose the destination folder in SharePoint or OneDrive where you want to save the PDF file.
    5. Map the File Content field to the TextInput control that contains the base64 code.
    6. Save and test the flow.

    Thanks Gill, but this doesn’t help me and I get more or less the same steps in chatgpt.  I am quite new to the Power Automate, and it would be great if there are some screenshots involved. I hope you understand the situation 🙂 

     

    cheers

    Those steps would only work if your Base64 is already in PDF format. If not, you have to convert it first. Do you know the original file format?
