Are you tired of manually transferring data from Excel to SharePoint? Look no further, as this article will show you how to streamline this process using Power Automate. Say goodbye to time-consuming and error-prone data transfers, and say hello to a more efficient and automated solution.
A company was struggling with manually importing Excel data into SharePoint, causing delays and errors. By using Power Automate and following these steps, they automated the process, saving time and ensuring accurate data import.
However, I wanted to export excel from a folder, not a list. I expect an exported file contains metadata of all files and folders in the target folder, which is possible by selecting "Export to Excel" from Sharepoint menu manually. Is there any way to automate that?
In this Power Automate tutorial, we will discuss how to get data from excel on SharePoint in Power automate. This is a complete example of Power Automate Get Data from Excel on SharePoint. So we will discuss the below points:
For example, I change the title Haripriya to Haripriya Dhall, so in this case, Sharepoint title column is not equal to Excel title column, power automate will create a new item in the SharePoint list.
I am trying to create a flow that can get the "last updated" metadata from a list of links to excel files in an excel file. The goal of the flow is to send an email notifying people if any of the files in the list have not been updated after a certain amount of time.
I think the problem is that the link to an excel file in sharepoint (essentially the share link) doesn't really work as a file ID or path. Is there a way to get around this? Either a way to get a file identifier from a URL, or maybe some kind of loop to open the file and then get the metadata? Or maybe some other way to represent the files in the excel list that would be usable?
I know I could just write the flow to get metadata from each individual file, but I would prefer to do it from a list of files in excel (so that I don't have to edit the flow every time I or someone else needs to add a file to the list).
To get it to work for my shared links ( :x:/r/sites/ExampleSiteName/Shared%20Documents/General/ExampleFolder/example%20folderB/example%20filename.xlsx?d=w960973c6352b44140fge28cf7d5c104e&csf=1&web=1&e=hLyqs7), I went to excel for some of the earlier steps. I realize my previous example links didn't really show the file name and type, which may have made things confusing.
Then, in the "Get file metadata using path" action, I can put the "Site Address" from the spreadsheet in the Site Address input, and in the File Path input I can put the formula: "decodeUriComponent(item()?['File Path'])", with 'File Path' being the dynamic data 'File Path' column from my spreadsheet.
I'm in the middle of setting up an automated flow using Microsoft Power Automate and I have some questions. I'm seeking to extract an .xlsx file from an Outlook email attachment and have the data from the attachment imported into a SharePoint master list.
Where I'm running into issues is that nothing is being exported into my SharePoint list on the last "create item" step and I'm not sure why. The attachment is being extracted from the email and a file is created in SharePoint using the "create file" action, I just can't figure out how to get that data into my SharePoint list.
In this Power Automate tutorial, we have learned step by step how to export a SharePoint list in Excel and send an email as a file attachment using Power Automate. I hope you got an idea on how to export sharepoint list to excel using power automate.

Getting data from a folder on OneDrive or SharePoint requires a different approach. First, we need the folder path, which you get from your browser. In the image below I want to get data from the folder called pq_2.05_excel_workbooks:
