    I discovered you can remove the error before the Transform File step.

It seems like no matter what transformation i apply, that error will always appear. Again, this error comes from me trying to import the 14th page of a PDF for an entire folder, except this one file doesn't have 14 pages (instead it only has 11)

It seems like the Trasnfmorm File(2) is looking for the 14th page and hence whenever it is getting triggered, an error occurs.

Can you share the code of the Transform File(2) from Advanced editor?

Let's see if we cna make it dynamic.

Also, it woudl be better if you can share your sample file as it would be easier to troubleshoot.

    Here's the advanced editor for Trasnfmorm File(2) 

     

    let
    Source = (Parameter2) => let
    Source = Pdf.Tables(Parameter2, [Implementation="1.3"]),
    Page1 = Source{[Id="Page014"]}[Data]
    in
    Page1
    in
    Source

      Try:

       

      let
      Source = (Parameter2) => let
      Source = Pdf.Tables(Parameter2, [Implementation="1.3"]),
      Page1 = Source{[Id="Page013"]}[Data]
      in
      Page1
      in
      Source

       

      I think thsi will avoid the error however the page 14 will not be included in further transformations.

      Please try once.

        This is problematic because each pdf could have a different number of pages. Is there a way to create a variable or something, so that it can import the maximum number of pages?
