I received a catalogue of 1000 pages where I have to find product number in Indesign from excel and then put url mentioned in excel on that product number in Indesign as a hyperlink. Is there any way to do this by automation? Please help me.

You are need to find script-writer and ask him (not for free) for doing script for you task.

If nobody gives you here a for free solution, you know such a script [similar one written for a client 3 years ago] already exists!

I thought my previous comment was clear: it's a paid script!

And this is not an adv.: Comrade Jedi-Fridnge is an old warrior and script-writer, you can trust him 🙂
