Profile

Enter a profile name. Contact your administrator to know which profiles are available for use in your instance.

A profile usually contains the base URL and other credentials that are required to access a specific location.

Enter the relative path to the actual location of the Excel files in the field, URL to Excel file.

To know more about how profiles are configured, refer to this page.

  • Use a Profile configured with an absolute URL to access the Excel data from public sources, or provide the publicly hosted absolute URL in the URL to Excel file field. Authentication is not required to access the Excel data from public sources, and the macro reads the content from the specified URL.
