I'm aware of the blob example here https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Engine-Works/The-Blob-Reporting-That-Isn-t-From-a-Horror-Film/ba-p/...
But would like to apply this to multiple sheets in the same output that will all follow the exact same template, with each tab based on a field.
I have attached three excel files: a formatted template, source data with an output path to Test.xlsx for two separate tabs, and what the Test.xlsx file should look look like when the workflow is complete. ie the template is applied to all tabs in the output which will have separate tabs based on the country which is linked to the output path.
Hopefully someone can help me join the dots here.
Thanks!

I made a workflow as attached and I did not use Blob to generate the template file, using CMD instead.
With minor effort, I believe we can change it to Blob if you prefer.
@Qiu would you mind expanding this to the use blobs instead of command prompt? I have a few use cases where this would be helpful.

Maybe you can help us with this? 😁
Hi @Qiu and @kristenbaxter
As far as I know, if the template excel has one sheet, the output should have one sheet. In other words, Blob tool way allow you copy one excel template to multiple excel files, but it can't allow you copy from one excel file which have one sheet to the one excel file which have multiple sheets.
For example,
OK : A.xlsx|||SheetA => B.xlsx|||SheetA and C.xlsx|||SheetA
NG :A.xlsx|||SheetA => A.xlsx|||SheetA and SheetB and SheetC
OK : A.xlsx|||SheetA and SheetB => B.xlsx|||SheetA and SheetB, C.xlsx|||SheetA and SheetB
In other words, we can not copy only the sheet using Blob tool.
But if you can prepare the required sheets which have the same template at the template excel book, it will work.
