BI- Automatic PDF Upload for Digital Binder

[Anonymous]

Hello!

   I am tasked with creating a digital binder for a committee at work. I have already gotten the documents labelled in PDF format. I am now trying to find a way where it would automatically update new meeting items to the BI.

Every month this meeting occurs and new pdfs will need to be uploaded. I tried this video but it does not work for PDF. Any tips are very much appreciated. 

Thank you!

hi @Anonymous 

For your case, you get data from folder and set Scheduled refresh for it.

And i have tested on my side, it works well for PDF file too.

Why it doesn't work on your side.

My PDF is text and does not contain tables. This is where I am having difficulty.
