#CONVERT OCTET STREAM TO PDF PDF#

Even if we read PDF attachment in the azure function using вЂњ().Result вЂќ the return type is base64 format.

String strNewOutcome = FormatCSV(decoded) String decoded = (streamOutput.ToArray()) log.Info(вЂњDecoded Stream to Text.вЂќ)

I also had a requirement to format some text in the document, I retrieved the text in the document and formatted it accordingly as below.

we have to make sure to convert it to required format to process it.

when we read PDF attachment in the azure function using вЂњ().Result вЂќ it returns the text in base64 format.

There are couple of points which I want to mention here. Create an Azure function which reads the PDF attachment and convert it to CSV format.

If we pass Current Item (from the loop) as an input to the azure function, input will be in following format we need to parse JSON to get the body.Дў.If we pass Attachment content as an input to the azure function, input will be in following format:.Create a Logic app to trigger when a new email is created with attachment (To keep it simple I didnвЂ™t add any further conditions but has attachments).

For that reason I had to go to Logic apps and call an azure function to do my job. Its evident now, we may have to use some code to get it done. That analysis helped me to look for another options eventually I ended up using third party dll named Bytescout to convert the document from PDF to CSV format. I did my research on Microsoft flow regarding this requirement and found that there is no direct way to convert a PDF attachment to CSV, instead I found may providers can convert from PDF to Word or any other format to PDF but not to CSV.

Requirement : One of my client have a requirement to convert the PDF attachment to CSV as and when it received to mailbox.ДЄnalysis: As soon as I received the requirement its evident that we may have to use either Microsoft flow, logic apps, azure functions.
