Remove junk row from Excel File outside of table

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hello, I am building a fairly simple flow that grabs an Excel file from an email attachment, saves it to OneDrive, creates a dynamic table, and uploads the data to Sharepoint. Unfortunately the create table trigger does not capture the last row of the data, which is mostly a junk row (see attached image), which is causing the subsequent Sharepoint insert to fail unless I manually delete it.

 

I am uncertain how to use the Delete Rows trigger to delete this junk row as it's outside of a table. Any thoughts? Any help is super appreciated!

    Hi @nmeye01 

     

    Couple thoughts

     

    1. Create a Script inside the Excel (if you can use this as a template for what's coming in)

     

    2. If you cannot get folks to use the Template, ,then create a template file and store it where-ever the data you get is and then copy the rows into the cleaned up copy and delete or archive the original

     

    3. Add a table around that one row, delete the row, delete the table.

     


    If I have helped you, I would really appreciate if you please Mark my answer as Resolved/Answered, and give it a thumbs up, so it can help others

    Cheers

    Thank You
