Request Parameters
The request uses multipart HTTP content (see RFC 2046 or RFC 1341).
The first part of the multipart body contains an ImportStringArrayOption payload; the second part contains the source data file.
The important parameters are described in the following table:
| Parameter Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| FirstRow | int | The starting row index (1‑based) where the data will be placed. |
| FirstColumn | int | The starting column index (1‑based) where the data will be placed. |
| IsVertical | boolean | true to insert data vertically; false to insert horizontally. |
| Data | String[] | The string array to be imported. |
| DestinationWorksheet | string | The name of the worksheet that will receive the data. |
| IsInsert | boolean | true to insert rows/columns (shifting existing cells); false to overwrite existing cells. |
| ImportDataType | string | Type of data being imported (e.g., IntArray, DoubleArray, StringArray, TwoDimensionIntArray, TwoDimensionDoubleArray, TwoDimensionStringArray, BatchData, csvData). |
| Source | FileSource | Describes where the data file resides when BatchData is null (e.g., CloudFileSystem, LocalFile). Required if BatchData is not supplied. |

How to Use the PostImportData API with SDKs
PostImportData API Specification
The OpenAPI Specification defines a publicly accessible programming interface and lets you carry out REST interactions directly from a web browser.
Use Aspose.Cells Cloud SDKs
Using an SDK is the best way to speed up development. An SDK handles low‑level details, allowing you to focus on your project tasks. Please check out the GitHub repository for a complete list of Aspose.Cells Cloud SDKs.
