Microsoft Adds Excel Support to the Office 365 REST API

Microsoft has added support for interacting with Excel documents, formulas and reporting through the Office 365 REST API.

Key scenarios that this could enable include:

  • Reading and writing data to an Excel document stored within Office 365
  • Calling an Excel formula for calculations
  • Having Excel online render a chart or graph based on Excel data

Code samples and documentation are available here.
