Hi @PetrosF-MSFT

Need your help. Actually am facing an issues while writing data to online excel using power automate desktop.

Scenario- Web scraping the data into a data table variable & write it on online business excel after this sort the specific column in ascending order. Please guide me how to achieve this situation with help of power automate desktop/power automate web app.

    Hi @dRautela_1234 

     

    Excel PAD Actions work only with your local Excel installation. Should you want to store data to online Excel, then I would suggest you to launch your local Excel, store the data and then change the save location to OneDrive. Alternatively, you could store the Excel file locally and then upload it to OneDrive. 

     

    Other than the above, you could try working with the Excel connectors of Power Automate.

     

    I hope that makes sense!

    Hi, @PetrosF-MSFT ,

    Thanks for your reply, I have tried the above scenario with the help of excel connectors available in Power automate.

    I am able to web scrape the data one by one with PAD & write it into excel(online) the same way with help of the Power automate web app. I want to know after getting all data in the excel (online ) column. how can I sort that column( ascending order ) & email back it to the respected person in 2 column ( Email ) of that excel (online ).
