Automatically copy an Excel file stored within a PDF binder/file

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 2

My company works off and stores all files for each division in a single PDF file/binder. Evidently they like the seemingly "organized" look of the PDF binder/storage and would not change their process. In order to use Power Automate or some other MS power apps with some of the files stored though, I need to extract the Excel files stored within the PDF binder into SharePoint/OneDrive folders. Is there a way to use Power Automate to automatically copy the Excel files updated and stored within a PDF binder to a SharePoint/OneDrive folder?

    @parkepa ,

     

    The only way I see that possible is using third party solutions to split the pdfs in separate pages and convert them back to office documents or spreadsheets.
