Microsoft Excel Overview#

The Microsoft Excel API on Pipedream allows you to automate spreadsheet tasks, manipulate data, and integrate Excel with other apps and services. Through Pipedream, you can create serverless workflows that react to events, perform operations on Excel files like reading, writing, updating cells, and managing worksheets. This API turns Excel into a powerful tool for data analysis, report generation, and task automation without manual intervention.

Trigger Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI and CLI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Microsoft Excel	`microsoftExcel`	`app`	This component uses the Microsoft Excel app.
N/A	`http`	`$.interface.http`	This component uses `$.interface.http` to generate a unique URL when the component is first instantiated. Each request to the URL will trigger the `run()` method of the component.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.

Trigger Authentication#

Microsoft Excel uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Microsoft Excel account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Microsoft Excel and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Microsoft Excel API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:

User.Reademailoffline_accessopenidprofileFiles.ReadWriteFiles.Read.AllUser.ReadCrossTenantInformation.ReadBasic.All

About Microsoft Excel#

You can use Microsoft Graph to allow web and mobile applications to read and modify Excel workbooks stored in OneDrive for Business, SharePoint site or Group drive.

Action#

Add Multiple Rows on Google Sheets

Description:Add multiple rows of data to a Google Sheet. [See the documentation](https://developers.google.com/sheets/api/reference/rest/v4/spreadsheets.values/append)

Google Sheets Overview#

The Google Sheets API allows for the creation, reading, updating, and deletion of data within Google Sheets, enabling a robust platform for spreadsheet management and data manipulation. Through Pipedream, you can craft serverless workflows that respond to various triggers, such as webhook events, emails, or scheduled times, to interact with Google Sheets. This synergy can automate reporting, synchronize data across applications, manage inventory, track leads in a CRM, or even conduct survey analysis by updating and retrieving sheet data on the fly.
