What if someone updates the file itself, rather than through the macro? I imagine the changes will not sync automatically?

Hi @[deleted]

True, the file imported into Elements Spreadsheet is not synchronized with the original one. Can you share with us which features you are expecting to retriveve into our app rather than using Excel? We may fill these needs.

Hi @[deleted]

Unfortunately we are not able to synchronize yet, thus we have integrated excel-like features in order to let your modify your Spreadsheet into our macro. If you need more information, you can easily contact directly our team to help you with your use case.

Is this only available for the server version? I seem to have some issues getting this done in Confluence Cloud

Hello, I have a question about uploading files

when I upload excel file into Confluence page, I can change the excel file with using name of it (like hyperlinks), but today, I can't change it. just I can upload excel file with thumbnails. it is uncomfortable to look at

if anybody knows about uploading file with using name, please tell me the ways. Thank you

Hi Vanthika. I don't seem to be able to log on with my Atlassian user. The missing Elements spreadsheets is available as normal for colleagues, but just not for me, if that helps.

If you do not have the right with your Atlassian user, you can send an email to the address: support@elements-apps.com. So we can link.

I don't see any macro called Spreadsheet or Element Spreadsheet. 

Is this still a thing?
