That sounds nifty. Could you provide an end to end flow for what you'd like to do? We'll be opening up the platform for partners to add extensions soon, maybe this is a good candidate.
- thenipper 11y agoSure thing. Though I'm in SQL hell right now so my apologies if this doesn't make sense. Ideally it'd be cool to provide some sort of custom designed function in Excel that is hosted in Azure. So I could write some C#(Eventually F#! Woot!) and then link it into a worksheet I have. So I could write a function like: getTheWeatherByZip and then in excel call it and get say a string back with the weather. Hopefully that makes sense.
- alesh 11y ago[MSFT] employee here. Among many other things, we've announced today, we talked about Excel REST APIs. This API allows you to access and modify Excel Spreadsheet. This may do what you’re looking for. There are more details at http://dev.office.com/blogs/build2016release http://dev.office.com/blogs/build2016release. (about half way through the page). Hope this helps.
