Import Data without using storage

Excel data import is a complex process. Many factors contribute to the complexity and therefore, should be taken into account during the export process. The ability to imports kinds of formats and types of data into the file with a precise professional quality is a top feature of Aspose.Cells Cloud.

This REST API indicates import data in an Excel file.

RSET API


POST https://api.aspose.cloud/v3.0/cells/import

The request parameters are:

Parameter Name	Type	Path/Query String/HTTPBody	Description
file	file	formData	File to upload
ImportOption	ImportOptions	HTTPBody	IntArray/DoubleArray/StringArray/TwoDimensionIntArray/TwoDimensionDoubleArray/TwoDimensionStringArray/BatchData/CSVData/Picture

The import data options parameters are described in the reference link.

The OpenAPI Specification defines a publicly accessible programming interface and lets you carry out REST interactions directly from a web browser.

You can use cURL command-line tool to access Aspose.Cells web services easily. The following example shows how to make calls to Cloud API with cURL.

Request

 
curl -v "http://api.aspose.cloud/v3.0/cells/import" \
-X POST \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Accept: application/json" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer <jwt token>" \
-F 'xxxxx1=@xxxx1.xlsx' \
-F 'xxxxx2=@xxxx2.xlsx' \
-F 'ImportOption={\"Data\":[1,2,4],\"DestinationWorksheet\":\"Sheet1\",\"FirstRow\":1,\"FirstColumn\":2,\"IsVertical\":true,\"IsInsert\":true,\"importDataType\":\"IntArray\"}'

Response

{
    "Files":
    [
        { 
            "Filename":"xxxxx",
            "FileSize":274022,
            "FileContent":"-----Base64String--------"
        },
        { 
            "Filename":"xxxxx",
            "FileSize":274022,
            "FileContent":"-----Base64String--------"
        }
    ]
}

Cloud SDK Family

Using an SDK is the best way to speed up the development. An SDK takes care of low-level details and lets you focus on your project tasks. Please check out the GitHub repository for a complete list of Aspose.Cells Cloud SDKs.

The following code examples demonstrate how to make calls to Aspose.Cells web services using various SDKs:

	namespace Aspose.Cells.Cloud.SDK.Tests.Api.Example
	{
	using Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UnitTesting;
	using Aspose.Cells.Cloud.SDK.Request;
	using System.Collections.Generic;
	using Aspose.Cells.Cloud.SDK.Api;
	using System;
	using System.IO;

	private readonly string remoteFolder = "TestData/In";
	string localName = "Book1.xlsx";
	string remoteName = "remote_book1.xlsx";
	string localPath = "D:/TestData/CellsCloud";
	[TestCategory("Cells")]
	[TestMethod]
	public void Example()
	{


	UploadFileRequest uploadFileRequest = new UploadFileRequest();
	FileInfo fileInfo = new FileInfo(localPath + "/" + localName);

	uploadFileRequest.storageName = "";
	uploadFileRequest.UploadFiles = new Dictionary<string, Stream>() { { localName, File.OpenRead(localPath +"/"+ localName) } };
	cellsApi.UploadFile(uploadFileRequest);


	var importOptionData = new List<int?>()

	1,

	};
	var importOption = new ImportIntArrayOption()
