Description
This article illustrates how to create a profile using a URL in the Excel macro.
| Info |
|---|
Before you begin:Before you enter the URL for a repository, ensure that it is a raw URL.
A raw URL is defined as the part of the URL following the domain information and includes the query string, if present. For example, in the URL string http://www.contoso.com/articles/recent.aspx, the raw URL is /articles/recent.aspx. | Tip |

| title | How to identify if a file is valid for the macro? |
|---|
| Paste the file link into your browser's address bar. If the actual code is displayed in the browser, it is considered to be invalid or in an incorrect format. If the file downloads to your system, the macro can process the file and its contents. |
- Know what is a complete URL.
- The complete URL, in this example, looks like:
https://bitbucket.org/bobswift-test/testfiles/raw/1366d872db9bef51f030a36c94a6b19ba5079c33/SheetJSTableExport.xlsx
- For illustrative purposes, a public Bitbucket public repository is used. Use URLs to add to profiles and in macros as per your requirement and your instance. The process for adding a profile and using it in macros remains the same for other repositories and external sources.
