💥 InfoPath is going away — but that doesn’t mean your automated document workflows have to disappear!

In this Power Automate tutorial, I’ll show you how to replace outdated InfoPath form workflows using modern Microsoft 365 tools. You’ll learn how to turn SharePoint list items into fully formatted Microsoft Word and PDF documents automatically — a perfect long-term solution for record keeping, form submissions, or approvals.

We’ll walk through the entire process step-by-step:

✅ Trigger a flow directly from a SharePoint list item
✅ Populate a Microsoft Word template with SharePoint data
✅ Generate and store the document automatically in SharePoint
✅ Convert to PDF for consistent archiving
✅ Move files to the right folders and overwrite older versions for clean record management

Whether you’re migrating away from InfoPath or just want to modernize your documentation process, this approach is a future-ready replacement that keeps everything inside the Microsoft 365 ecosystem — secure, searchable, and auditable.
