Product Description

Microsoft Excel is a spreadsheet program used for calculations, making charts and recording data.

The Flowgear Excel Connector enables integration to and from Excel spreadsheets to facilitate in bulk or batch data loading, as well as reporting. You can also build workflow business logic in Excel workbooks which can then be used in Flowgear workflows.

Use the Flowgear platform to increase your productivity and profitability while delivering customer excellence!

Benefits of using this connector

Integrations quickly become a critical component in a business so stability is incredibly important.
Third Party endpoints like Microsoft Excel are frequently updated, which if unmanaged, can result in downtime. Hand-coded integrations require frequent review or dependence on a third party integrator making it difficult to avoid breaking changes.
The Flowgear Microsoft Excel is a robust wrapper around the underlying API or database and new versions of this Connector are shipped as the vendor releases updates. This approach minimizes overhead and ensures integrations remain functional across vendor product updates.

Avoid complex API documentation, deliver solutions in 25% of the time compared to hand code.

Each Flowgear connector includes a set of Samples.

These samples visually surface all the features, objects and fields made available by the Microsoft Excel API, including any customized objects.

Example: “Create Contact” quickly filter through 3500 Salesforce Objects.
