Power BI PDF Integration with Python script

I need to create a python code/file to implement into Power Bi, to allow the software to promptly open a specific PDF file when the transaction number [which is the PDF File Name] is selected in the slicer in the Power BI Dashboard that displays the company's Purchasing and Receivables data in slicers. I would like to know some steps to help me achieve this. Thank you for reading.

@Anonymous , If PDF only has a table you can use Power BI's pdf connector

 

Or use Python as the source and read pdf - https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/working-with-pdf-files-in-python/
