Automatically update a stock portfolio from OneDrive to Excel
Keep a master Excel record continuously up to date from CSV drops in OneDrive, with cleaning, deduplication and change detection handled automatically. Your team works from one trusted sheet instead of reconciling files by hand.

Detail
What it actually does.
- Watches a designated OneDrive folder for newly dropped CSV files every minute
- Pulls each new file and parses its contents into structured rows
- Cleans and standardises fields so values land in a consistent format
- Compares incoming rows against the existing Excel sheet to spot new or changed records
- Appends fresh entries and updates rows where values have moved
- Maintains a single authoritative workbook your team can rely on
- Logs activity so you can audit what was added or amended
Common questions
Before you book a call.
Answers to what most teams ask when they look at a workflow like this. If yours is not here, ask us on the call.
Can you build this document ops workflow for our team?
Yes. We design and ship workflows like this as part of our Integration & API practice. The fastest way to scope it is a 30-minute call — we share what we would build, what it would cost, and how fast it would ship.
What tools does this workflow use?
The default build connects Microsoftexcel and OneDrive. The same pattern works on n8n, Make, or Zapier for simpler runs, or as a custom Node or Python service when reliability and volume justify the build. See Workflow Automation for how we choose the right platform per use case.
What does a build like this typically cost?
Most workflows of this complexity sit inside a Discovery sprint or a small Build engagement rather than a fixed-price product. See our pricing model for how engagements are structured, or book a call and we will scope this specific workflow against your stack.
Have you shipped something like this for clients?
Yes. See our case studies for examples of automation and AI builds we have delivered, including a podcast platform we took from zero to 261K monthly Google impressions in six months on a content + automation engine.
What other Document Ops workflows can you build?
Plenty. Browse our other Document Ops workflow ideas for documented patterns, or tell us what you would like to automate — most clients arrive with a problem rather than a specific workflow in mind.
