A NEW WAY TO VIEW EXCEL FILES IN CONFLUENCE

Jun 8, 2022

Hi Community 👋,

My name is Shalu Pandey, and I’m a product manager working on Confluence
Ecosystem features for Confluence Cloud.

I’m happy to share that the Excel Macro has gotten an upgrade, making it easier
to view embedded Excel files in Confluence. We prioritized this work based on
customer feedback that the existing experience made it hard to work with Excel
files within Cloud.

The Excel Macro now displays content more similarly to how Excel works - tabs of
sheets, instead of a PDF. In the new experience, the file is displayed as a
spreadsheet with tabs and you can navigate the embedded Excel file in a
Confluence page.

🔢 Spreadsheet format makes it easier to engage with data

BEFORE                                    AFTER

                              

🗂 Tabbed views make it easier to navigate the embedded file 



🚨If you're currently using the Excel Macro, you'll need to re-upload your file
to see the new experience. Follow the steps below to upload.



This feature is currently rolling out so if you don’t see it on your Confluence
Cloud instance today, it should come to your site soon.

Please leave any feedback below in the comments and stay tuned for more exciting
things from Confluence Ecosystem coming soon!

Looks great @Shalu Pandey !! Any word as to when Data Center may have this
feature?

Sounds like a real improvement. Is there any way to proactively check if my
organisation has received the new macro or a means to proactively get the new
macro?



Like
Simon Kliewer Atlassian Team Jun 09, 2022

@Dave Beever We're excited for you to use it! The easiest way to check would be
to use the macro, and you should either see the old experience (PDF) or new
experience (tabbed sheets). 

The new experience is still actively rolling out to customers, so if your
organization does not have access yet, they will soon!

Hi @Stu and @Ollie Guan - thank you for your interest in an update for the excel
macro for data center. At this time, this is not on our immediate roadmap but we
will keep you updated incase that changes.

This is definitely an improvement, although I wish the macro allowed for
limiting the display to a specific worksheet (or worksheets) as with the server
version.  One bug I will note is that the spreadsheet does not render when
previewing the page.  You have to publish the page before you can view the
results. :(

This is great to support Excel preview, thank you so much.

One more suggestion: if it's possible to edit the Excel on the WIKI page by
different persons at the same time? Please help consider, thanks.

Erik Mathijs Jun 27, 2022

It is a really great improvement.

I am really happy with the current improvement

Any more improvements / suggestions:

 * add the ability to specify wich tab to show on the first view
 * add the ability to enable the edit link (like confluence server)

This looks interesting. Is there a way to embed an Excel file from SharePoint,
instead of attaching it? Thanks,

The macro doesn't seem to display wider sheets properly. Even after clicking "go
wide" or "go full width" it shrinks columns so that excel doesn't want to
display the full string of numbers. There is no way to update this in the page
or settings, which makes this new feature unusable for us.

Shalu Pandey Atlassian Team Jul 12, 2022

Hi @Laurie Hickey , thank you for your feedback! We will consider the
improvement for limiting display to one worksheet in our future roadmap.  The
bug around rendering the spreadsheet in preview mode has been fixed and is in
production.

@Kelly Arrey you should be able to embed the Excel Sheet in Confluence but the
rendering will be dependent on Microsoft integration with Confluence and would
not use the HTML rendering as introduced by this feature release.

Hi @Shalu Pandey

That sounds interesting. How do you do that? Does it require a 3rd-party app? I
haven't found anything that looks related in the Confluence Cloud Docs except
this, which is for the old editor.

Thanks, 

Kel

Hi @stephanie lollar!

Would it be possible to send a few example screenshots to skliewer@atlassian.com

solution.

Thank you!

Hi @Shalu Pandey ,

via your reaction to @Kelly Arrey  about embedding I found out about embedding. 
Can you point us to the documentation please ?  I does not seem to work with my
personal microsoft test account.  Perhaps because it is only available for work
accounts ?  But then, I need to give access to everything ...

Regards,
Dirk

Hi @Kelly Arrey and @Dirk Vanhaute you can embed Sharepoint through SmartLinks -
please see this announcement
https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-articles/Smart-Links-a-richer-way-to-hyperlink/ba-p/1412786
for more information!

Thanks @Shalu Pandey I was able to find that page with the help of the Support
team. Unfortunately, the "Display embed" is exceptionally well hidden, and if
you do succeed in finding it, the imbed makes bizarre choices of what tabs/cells
of the spreadsheet to display. It's effectively unusable for us, unless the
support team can come up with some more suggestions.

Hello @Shalu Pandey    Having a little trouble getting this to work to
seamlessly show all tabs in worksheet.  My organization is currently
on  Confluence 7.13.7.   You indicate above this is still being rolled out - 
what is the version we should be on ?
