Hi all. I have round 100 Word documents (.docx) where we have a department name ex. "Department XXX", that needs to be updatet with "Department YYY". I want to use Power Automate for the job, because the files is stored in SharePoint. I can get the file content, but then the trouble begins. I am trying to get the data from the body, but I am running into different kind of problems. It is not a string, etc. Is there somehow a chance taht this can be done with a flow, or do the users have to make a search/replace in each document? I do not know if I can use a Parse as Json, or if the file content should be made into XML or another kind of file before I make the update of the file.

Thanks in advance

/Frank
