Add Excel Online

Workflow

  1. Check Memory Bank → 2. Gather → 3. Add Connector → 4. Configure → 5. Build → 6. Update Memory Bank

Step 1: Check Memory Bank

Check for memory-bank.md per shared-instructions.md.

Step 2: Gather

Ask the user:

  1. Where is the workbook? (OneDrive or SharePoint)
  2. Workbook file name
  3. Which table(s) in the workbook to access

Step 3: Add Connector

First, find the connection ID (see connector-reference.md):

Run the /list-connections skill. Find the Excel Online (Business) connection in the output. If none exists, direct the user to create one using the environment-specific Connections URL — construct it from the active environment ID in context (from power.config.json or a prior step): https://make.powerapps.com/environments/<environment-id>/connections → + New connection → search for the connector → Create.

Excel Online is a tabular datasource -- requires -c (connection ID), -d (drive), and --table (table name in workbook):

# OneDrive workbook
pa app add data-source --connector excelonlinebusiness -c <connection-id> -d 'me' --table 'Table1'

# SharePoint workbook -- dataset is the document library path
pa app add data-source --connector excelonlinebusiness -c <connection-id> -d 'sites/your-site' --table 'Table1'

Run for each table the user needs.

Step 4: Configure

AddRowIntoTable -- adds a row to an Excel table:

// OneDrive workbook
await ExcelOnlineBusinessService.AddRowIntoTable({
  source: "me",
  drive: "me",
  file: "MyWorkbook.xlsx",
  table: "Table1",
  body: { column1: "value1", column2: "value2" } // Flat object, NO "items" wrapper
});

// SharePoint workbook
await ExcelOnlineBusinessService.AddRowIntoTable({
  source: "sites/your-site",
  drive: "drive-id",
  file: "SharedWorkbook.xlsx",
  table: "Table1",
  body: { column1: "value1", column2: "value2" }
});

Key points:

  • source: "me" and drive: "me" for OneDrive personal files
  • For SharePoint, use the site path and drive ID
  • The body is a flat key-value object matching column headers -- do NOT wrap in { items: ... }

Use Grep to find specific methods in src/generated/services/ExcelOnlineBusinessService.ts (generated files can be very large -- see connector-reference.md).

Step 5: Build

npm run build

Fix TypeScript errors before proceeding. Do NOT deploy yet.

Step 6: Update Memory Bank

Update memory-bank.md with: connector added, workbook/table configured, build status.

Integrates Power Pages generative-AI summarization APIs (PREVIEW) into a Single Page Application (SPA) site — the Search Summary API and the Data Summarization API — on any record-detail or list page. Generates per-target service code (CSRF-handled) and AI site settings; delegates Web API settings, table permissions, and web roles to `/integrate-webapi` and `/create-webroles`. Use whenever a user wants AI/Copilot output that condenses Dataverse content on a Power Pages site — an AI summary, AI-generated overview or "key insights" across a record or list, a search-results summary, a case/incident summary, or recommendation-chip refinement — even when phrased as "AI-generated paragraph", "insights", or "overview". Do NOT use for: generative pages in model-driven apps (use the model-apps `genpage` skill), Copilot Studio agents/chatbots, summarizing documents or PDFs, Power BI dashboards, plain keyword search with no AI summary, or plain Dataverse CRUD (use `/integrate-webapi`).
