[You can see the file formats we support here](https://www.nutrient.io/guides/document-converter/sharepoint/knowledge-base/what-file-formats-types-are-supported-for-conversion.md). Steps to convert your text file to PDF using Power Automate: 1. Create a flow in Power Automate 2. Define your action 3. Create a file 4. Publish your workflow This example uses Power Automate to convert a text file to PDF in SharePoint. However, you can save your text file to Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive, or any platform supported by Power Automate. You can also extend our example by adding additional automation, such as sending the converted PDF as an email. ## 1: Creating a new flow in Power Automate Create a new flow and use the **When a file is created** trigger. Fill out the URL for the site address and select the relevant SharePoint library from the dropdown menu.![create a new flow](@/assets/guides/muhimbi/pdf-converter/power-automate/text-to-pdf-1.jpg) ## 2: Converting text to PDF Insert Nutrient’s **Convert document** action and fill it out as shown in the screenshot displayed below.
