Working with tasks
Aspose.Cells Cloud provides a Task API that enables developers to perform a variety of operations on Excel workbooks, such as converting formats, importing data, executing SmartMarker templates, and saving results. Tasks are executed asynchronously: you create a task, run it, and retrieve the outcome.
Prerequisites: an Aspose Cloud account with a valid API key, supported Excel file formats, and the latest version of the Cells API (v3.0+).
- Support Request File in Task API – Allows you to upload a file to cloud storage and reference it in subsequent tasks, ensuring the file is available for processing.
- Working with CellsObjectOperate Task – Executes operations on cell objects (e.g., rows, columns) within a workbook, such as adding, deleting, or updating cell values.
- Working with Convert Task – Converts a workbook to PDF, HTML, CSV, or JSON formats, with options for page range, password protection, and custom conversion settings.
- Working with ImportData Task – Imports data from CSV, JSON, or XML files into a worksheet, mapping columns to cells and optionally specifying the start row and column.
- Working with SaveResult Task – Saves the result of a previously executed task (e.g., a converted file) back to cloud storage or returns it in the response.
- Working with SmartMarker Task – Processes a workbook containing SmartMarker tags (e.g.,
{{Customer.Name}}) using a JSON data source to generate a populated report. - Working with WorksheetOperates in Task API – Performs worksheet‑level operations such as adding, deleting, or renaming worksheets as part of a task workflow.
