'How to get existing pivot table names and modify them using xlwings?
I am using xlwings(python3) to automate an excel report, need to find a way to get the names of all the existing pivot tables on a given sheet and then change the source data for it, but can't find anything about it
Do you know if this is possible?
Thanks

It can be done using xlwings api, Pivot tables are accessed with
.api.PivotTables()
An example to display name and rename table is below.
import xlwings as xw
filename = 'pivottables.xlsx'
wb = xw.Book(filename)
ws = wb.sheets('Sheet1')
for idx, pt in enumerate(ws.api.PivotTables()):
print(pt.Name)
pt.Name = "PTable" + str(idx)
wb.save("modded_" + filename)
wb.close()
