In Excel Online, there is a feature called "Catch Up" that permits seeing a list of changes made to the workbook.
Is there a way with any API (Graph?) to get this list of changes made to the workbook ? I would like to have the data shown in the "Changes" panel in a PowerBI report.
Thanks,

I need help finding a way to making an excel sheet editable for only a set timeframe.
For example I only want other people to be able to edit the document from 6am-9am but the rest of the day I want it locked to everyone except the admin users.
I already tried finding a solution on google and YouTube but I just keep getting the same results and that is excels basic locking futures where you manually have to assign who can edit and can not edit the document. I couldn't find anything to locking the document to a set timeframe.
I have a PowerBi report with several data sources, SQL query and Excel connector.
The SQL data data on our Products whereas the Excel is living data on salesperson notes on said products.
The PowerBI has a PowerApp visualization. The Power App has 3 pages:
Page 1 is landing page that Gallery displays data from PowerBi
Page 2 is a form edit page to edit notes in the Excel spreadsheet that we know exists because we saw those notes in the PowerBi report
Page 3 is a form edit page to add new notes in the Excel spreadsheet that we know we have to add because we did not see them in the PBI report
On Page 1 are two buttons, "Edit" and "New" that navigates to the proper page.
Now here the WTF moment
IF the Product has notes and the user clicks on the NEW button, then PowerApps adds the line to the Excel spreadsheet, causing duplicates and thus the PowerBi report cannot refresh. It breaks.
If the Product does not have notes and the user clicks on the EDIT button then PowerApps does a LookUp(ExcelSpreadsheet, Column=Gallery1.Selected.PowerBiValue which results in a NULL value and thus breaks with a dreaded server response: expression "... eq null" is not supported.
If I try to add the 'IsEmpty()' to preemptive counter it, the 'Lookup()' is run first thus breaking before it gets to the 'IsEmpty()', same goes with 'IsBlank', 'IsBlankOrError', and 'IsError'.
I have Googled the living %(#$* out of this and there seems to be nothing on it, as this is in direct relation to 'LookUp' on the Excel Spreadsheet not a dropdown or in app text box that other people have issues with. How is it that you can't even use the error handler 'IsError()' as it breaks before the handler can even have a chance to do anything.
If I use LookUp(ExcelSpreadsheet, Column=Gallery1.Selected.PowerBiValue) in any way, shape, or form, with or without If clauses, because it will eventually produce a NULL result, Power Apps breaks
How do I read null values from a data source?
SOLUTION:
Since the "living data" Excel spreadsheet is also in the PowerBi report, I have PowerBi send the living data values along with the SQL queried product values to the PowerApp. Since the NULL is now a sent from PowerBi instead of queried from Excel within PowerApps, I can have 1 button that's OnSelect property reads:
IF(IsBlankorError(Gallery1.Selected.LivingDataNotes),Navigate(NewNotes),Navigate(EditNotes)
First time poster here. This is my question:
STATUS. I built a word template for my company to automates the construction of our agreements. It has a legacy form on the first page that pulls clauses/verbiage into the rest of the document using conditional statements that reference the bookmarks in the form.
PROBLEM. I would like to create a submit button at the end of the form that, when pressed by the user, automatically exports the user’s responses to the form to one excel worksheet that houses all user responses to the form.
PRIOR ACTIONS. I cannot use an excel macro to search the folder where the word documents are saved because the users save each instance of the template agreement in different project folders. Additionally, it is impracticable for the form data to be sent to me via email.
Any help is greatly appreciated! If this question has been previously posted, please send me the link.
I am using a lotus notes database, where our whole company adds its customer data to it. The search function should give me the customer and when I click it I get more detailed information, which I need for my daily work.
However, I have to search this database and it is quite unreliable in terms of displaying the data and also often because of data insertion errors I do not find what I am desiring.
Therefore, I was wondering if I could export this database to excel and search it through with the filters.
Any recommendations how to do that?
I appreciate your replies!
You could also utilize the native full-text search of Domino : in the [View] menu, click "Search this view".
Select all the rows you want to export.
Do Edit/Copy AS>Table (could be long)
Past in EXCEL you will also get a link to the document in Excel.
This solution is relevant only if you research in few data. You may also build a "clever" view in Notes (exploding spaces for example) and search "start with" which is alway up to date.
I have pulled Notes view information into Excel from the Excel side via VBA - you'd need (to create) a view with all the relevant fields in columns first. Here's some code that worked for me: Accessing Lotus Notes database from Excel VBA - how do I pick up COLUMNVALUES?
I was picking up category subtotals..presumably you want the document contents instead so change the
Set Entry = nav.getNextCategory(Entry)
to
Set Entry = nav.getNextDocument(Entry)
and tweak the VBA code to suit which columns you want... good luck !
I'm a TFS2010 User.
I have my own query named "My Current job" that show me the User Stories and related Task that I have to do right now.
I have opened the query in excel and made a conditional format to the workbook that show in green color the rows of completed work items.
Are there any way to make this conditional format (and other changes like this) permanent for this query?
I'm not the only one user of the teamproject, so I preffer don't change anything that could affect others users unless that is the only way.
Currently I've excel macros that do the job, but I wonder if it can be done directly in TFS .
Thanks.
This should be possible by using the "Team" ribbon on any Excel-document, simply click on any cell and then select "New List". Navigate to the query you 're interested in and harvest the results in your worksheet:Once you have established this link "Publish" will push your changes from Excel to TFS and "Refresh" will refresh your results from TFS
