Iterating over a list of files and applying similar actions to each, particularly extraction

For the record, I pasted my above posting text into copilot.microsoft.com and below is the reply, but as I've already learned, and as AI purveyors stamp into every single response: "AI-generated content may be incorrect", so I'm not taking the statement that it "is designed to work with a single file attachment at a time" at face value. I'd like to see documentation or hear from a knowledgeable human on the matter.

```I’m sorry to hear that you’re having trouble using Microsoft Copilot for Microsoft 365 (E5) to extract information from multiple PDF files. Currently, Microsoft Copilot is designed to work with a single file attachment at a time. It is not capable of iterating over multiple files or a folder of files and performing repetitive actions on each file.

However, there are other ways to achieve your goal of extracting information from multiple PDF files. One option is to use a script or a tool that can automate the process of iterating over the files and extracting the desired information. You can use tools like Power Automate or write a script in a language like Python to automate the process. These tools can help you to extract the information from each file and combine the results into a single table.

I hope this information helps you to find a solution that works for you. If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, please don’t hesitate to ask.```
