Summary

We are looking for a developer or automation specialist to help create an automated workflow for one of our clients. The goal is to automate the process of downloading or extracting a subfolder file structure, including folder names and document names, into an Excel spreadsheet. From that Excel file, the system should then automatically generate a Word document formatted as a table of contents. The ideal solution would minimize manual work and allow the client to repeat this process as needed. We are not yet sure what the best technical approach is, so we are looking for someone who can evaluate the request, confirm feasibility, recommend the right tools or workflow, and build the automation. Experience with Excel, Word, file/folder automation, Microsoft 365, Power Automate, scripting, or document generation is preferred.
