Append cells in Excel worksheet Action(Power Automate Desktop)
This is an action for pasting copied cells.
It is similar to ‘Paste cells to Excel worksheet’, but the method for specifying the position differs.
While ‘Paste cells to Excel worksheet’ specifies the position by cell address, ‘Append cells in Excel worksheet’ specifies the table and pastes at the end of the table.
How to use
First, specify the target Excel file in the Launch Excel Action or the Attach to Running Excel Action, then drag the "Append cells in Excel worksheet" Action from "Excel.Advanced" onto the workspace.
In most cases, you will first copy the contents to be pasted using ‘Copy cells from Excel worksheet’.
Set parameters.
The edited contents will not be reflected in the file as is.
If you wish to keep the edited content, you must save it using Save Excel Action or Close Excel Action at the end.
Parameters
Excel instance
Specify the target Excel file.
Specify the Variables produced for the Launch Excel Action or the Attach to running Excel Action.

To active sheet

The 'Starting column' of the destination changes. The behaviour also changes depending on the cell structure and other parameters, so we recommend trying out various patterns on an actual worksheet.
