SharePoint Infopath list to pdf

[dbocvan]

Hello,

I have created an InfoPath form in SharePoint, connected with a list. The form is working correctly and sends the data to the list.

How can I convert the InfoPath form to pdf, using power automate, saving the pdf file in a SharePoint folder?

Thank you!

David

I'm not too sure on how to convert the infopath form into a PDF, but what you can do is create a word template, and then populate it with the data from the list using the "Populate a Microsoft Word Template" (which is a premium connector). Once you do that, you can then create a file in one drive and then convert a file in onedrive to a PDF document, and then save it in a SharePoint folder. 

Here's a great blog I found on how to do this, we do this at our company all the time and it works great!

Hi @dbocvan 

You can't convert the InfoPath XML file directly to a PDF as rendered within Forms Server using Power Automate.

Assuming you've mapped the data contained within the form to SharePoint list columns... you can just use the SharePoint list data interleaved in custom HTML to convert to PDF, example: https://blog.encodian.com/2020/01/convert-sharepoint-list-items-to-pdf/
