How do I script the name of the excel online file to a cell?

I'm completely new at scripting.
Excel online - I have created a bunch of new excel files in Powerautomate, but I need the file specific filename inside each document. How do I do this?
I have found - console.log(workbook.getName()), this give me the correct "output", but I cant write it to a cell.
It is cell "B2", in spreadsheet "Data".
Hope you are able to help,
Thanks
Edit:
I have a pile of excel files that have been generated via MS Powerautomate.
Powerautomate is generating a specific name for each file. I need this file name inside each excel file, to do a specific filtering in a bunch of data.
The following picture are in Danish.

The name of this document is "Skabelon" and I would like to have this name automatically filled in spreadsheet "Data" "B2".
Is this possible?

how to lookup image from different excel

I am creating an excel workbook file with one of the column containing a title of an image that is in another excel workbook file, that excel file contained huge database of images how to lookup images form that excel workbook file with their individual title
Note: these are two different Excel workbooks. And the condition is we can't merge file because imageDatabase file is so heavy up to 25MB for that reason excel is get not responding or force close.
file for example:
https://drive.google.com/a/flygoldfinch.com/file/d/0B9VV_J4sKTatdDBEZ01GNHg3Y0k/view?usp=docslist_api
Any reference to a cell in Excel can be performed on any other sheet, be it in the same file, or an outside file.
A reference to another sheet within the file looks like this:
='sheetname'!M20
The same thing works if that sheet is in a different file
='[file.xlsx]sheetname'!$H$726
Knowing that the reference will work that way, you can write any formula with it. This includes VLOOKUPs, or anything else you need to do.
A good shortcut to make this easier is to have both files open, click the cell you want to make the reference in, type =, then switch to the other file, click the cell you want, and hit return. Your reference is made.

Make excel worksheet mirror worksheet in external file

How can I make a worksheet in my excel file mirror exactly the sheet of a different (closed) worksheet.
Basically, I have around 5 files with a lot of data the gets consolidated into a single dashboard with the important information. I then want to create a file (lets call it report) that has the 'main' sheet from each of these different files.
Ideally, the report file will not have to be altered, and when it is opened it will already have all the data needed.
Note: there are merged cells in the documents that are in variable positions.
response to comment #1:
By be there already, for example you can do a vlookup referencing other workbooks.. and the values of those vlookups will be correct when you open the file. First I thought I could just say cell A1 is file 1 = cell A1 in file 2, but the merged cells throw that off because it will not create merged cells to match
I found the following and it can be done in Excel VBA.
1) open consolidated workbook
2) Assuming that all the files you need to consolidate are in a given directory, you can obtain the list of all these files.
2.1) Traverse the list of files and open them one after the other
2.2) When a file is open, you might want to change the name of the sheet before moving it to the "report" file.
2.3) Close each file without saving them.

Batch file opening Excel file and Macro

I want to create a batch file which when I run this file, an excel file should open with some columns in it.
Say if I click on batch file, excel file with columns name, project, ID should also get included in excel file.
Also with this a macro should be open.
Please help. I dont have any idea about this.
I don't think it is possible to automate excel with pure batch.
Why not:
Create an "template" excel file with the default columns and macro included
Have a batch file copy this template (copy template.xslx newfile.xslx) file and open it (`Start newfile.xslx).
For the new file, you'd either have to generate a random or timestamp-based name or have the user enter the name before making a copy.
