ODBC application
Use these SQL queries in your ODBC application data source:
Read Excel Worksheet (SharePoint Document Library) for a specified Cell Address Range
Reads an Excel file from a specified Cell Range. To automatically read without cell range use other endpoint get_excel_worksheet_autodetect
SELECT * FROM get_excel_worksheet
WITH (DriveId='b!GtLN726LE0eY5F2BBNi14wMKmwdpCDFMn1d71ra11GuQ4DORpHy-XXXXXXXXXXX'
,FileId='01SUOJPKECYDDVFXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX'
,SheetId='Sheet1' --Id or Name
--,SheetId='{00000000-0001-0000-0000-000000000000}' --Using ID is good idea if Sheet ever renamed (Id doesnt change)
,Range='A1:K10000'
,ArrayTransEnableCustomColumns='True' --set this to False if No header in first row
)
--DriveId can be retrieved by selecting from 'Drives' table.
--FileId can be retrieved by selecting from 'list_files' endpoint.
--SheetId can be retrieved by downloading Excel file and discovering what sheets exist or by selecting from 'list_excel_worksheets' endpoint.
--Range should be set to Excel-type of range where data is located.
