    Hello,
     
    What Srini mentioned is correct—Excel files on Google Drive are typically managed using Power Automate. However, if you are only considering Power Automate Desktop, in practice, it is often used to download files as Excel files for reading and analysis. After the analysis is completed, the processed file is uploaded back to the cloud.
     
    Best refards,
    Eddy.
