During this session, we will learn how we can convert Word documents to PDF using Power Automate. We will not use any Premium connector for this conversion process. Check the entire video for more information.

 

First, when we upload a Word document to a SharePoint document library, we will convert that document to PDF and upload to another SharePoint library. We will use OneDrive for Business as a middle platform for this conversion.

    Hey Dhruvin,

     

    Problem solved. I used the update-action and after some search all works well.

    Convert Word to PDF using Power Automate

    Hi,

    Thanks for this helpfull tool.

    In my case I want to update the pdf-file every time the Word-document was updated. 
    This flow only works fine the first time the PDF was created. The 'Create file' action does not replace the old PDF. 

    I tried the 'Delete file'-action, but it only works with identifiers and the only one available is the identifier of the Word-document.

    Is there a way to delete the old pdf-file before creating the update-file?
