Is it possible to add an additional sheet to the existing Excel source file on blob in Azure Data Factory?

My idea is to take existing blob Excel source file which has one sheet with analytical data, add new, additional sheet and populate it with summarized/aggregated data from the first sheet.

Was trying to find anything related to this specific use case in the documentation but without success.

Any help is highly appreciated.

    Hi @Nebojsa Djekic

    Right now there is no sink available to be used in data flow activity or copy activity. So if you want to add sheets to existing files, you may explore pandas library like openpyxl, and create custom solution in python and call it using custom activity from ADF.
