How to batch replace a logo on a single PDF multiple times and save as separate files

I have a PDF that I need to replace the logo on, originally created in InDesign. The problem is I have 200+ logos that I need to individually replace for that same PDF and save it each time as a different file name. Is there a way to do this in automated batches so I don't have to do one by one? Thank you!

You could do it with a Daata merge

You can use a script to import the CSV file populated with the data

And then at the end - you can export each file to a separate PDF file.

Do the replacement using Data Merge then the export using Batch Convert script: https://creativepro.com/files/kahrel/indesign/batch_convert.html

Edit: just saw this is a PDF. Is it single page or multi? To do the merge you'd need to place the PDF then do the logo on top.

Thank you for the response. It's a single page PDF.
