devart-excelonline-connector 1.0.1

New level of functionality and performance in data access via Python

Python Connector for Microsoft Excel Online

Python Connector for Microsoft Excel Online is a connectivity solution for accessing Microsoft Excel Online from Python applications to read and update data. It fully implements the Python DB API 2.0 specification. The connector is distributed as a wheel package for Windows and Windows Server.

Standard SQL syntax

The connector fully supports the ANSI SQL standard and lets you execute SQL statements against your Microsoft Excel Online data just like you would normally work with relational databases. Simple queries are directly converted to Microsoft Excel Online API calls and executed on the Microsoft Excel Online side. Complex queries are transformed into simpler queries, which are then converted to Microsoft Excel Online API calls. The embedded SQL engine then processes the results in the local cache and applies advanced SQL features from the original complex query.

Using the connector

To retrieve data from [!ProductNameMix]:

Import the module.

import devart.excelonline as excelonline

Connect to a database using the connect() module method and obtain a connection object.

response = excelonline.signin()
my_workbook = excelonline.getworkbook()
my_connection = excelonline.connect(
    WorkbookId=my_workbook["Workbook Id"]
    RefreshToken=response["Refresh Token"]
)

Create a cursor object using the cursor() connection method.

my_cursor = my_connection.cursor()

Execute the SQL statement using the execute() cursor method.

my_cursor.execute("SELECT * FROM all_types")

Retrieve the result set using one of the fetch*() cursor methods.

for row in my_cursor.fetchall(): 
    print(row)
