I had a similar use case for updating/inserting records based on an attached spreadsheet. The route I took was setting up a Data Source with a Transform Map. When a request with an attachment was submitted, a Flow would run to copy the attachment to the Data Source, removing the existing file and validating the new one. Then, the Flow would trigger the Scheduled Import.

Here is a portion of a similar process within flow designer. You might have to build custom actions for running scheduled import (check out this youtube vid by Robert Fedoruk on how to set that up.) The below flow utilizes multiple data sources, as my use case was geared towards updating/creating both CIs and Assets at the same time.
