    Can you provide additional detail on what you would like to accomplish? 

    Is the data in an Excel table?

    Are all the spreadsheets formatted in exactly the same way?

    Hi scott, 
    The things I want to automate includes below : 
    1. Trigger : when email arrives from certain user 

    2. Get the attachment content (In excel data sheet)

    3. Upload excel to dataverse table 

     

    The excel file is formatted in exactly same way. Its monthly repetitive task.
