Description | This action allows you to convert an Excel file (XLSX, XLSM or CSV) into an HTML file. |
Required licence | HTML Feature |
1 | Excel file | Select the file you want to convert to HTML web page. You have two options to select the file: Internal file: Here you can select a file that is already being used in the DataSuite and has, for example, previously been written to by another trigger. File system: With this option you can select any file from the file system of your computer. |
2 | Publish | You can either save the HTML file to the file system or publish it directly to the built-in web server (web server feature required) |
Publish HTML web page to file system #
You can save the HTML web page on the file system to publish it on your own web server, for example.
1 | Filename | Specify the filename of the HTML file. |
After you have converted the Excel file into an HTML file, you will receive the HTML file and an additional folder.
To display the HTML file, the _files folder is also required. This contains the actual content. This means the individual sheets and graphics.
Publish HTML web page on the integrated web server #
You can publish the web page directly on the integrated web server. This allows the web page to be easily accessed via the browser.
1 | Webserver-Path | Enter here the address under which you want to call the web page. The first part is already given and cannot be changed. For more information on using the web server, see Webserver / REST API. |
Please note:
Webserver feature required: The “Webserver/Rest-API” feature is required to use the integrated webserver.
Please note:
Configuration of the web server required: To use the integrated web server, you must first configure it. A default configuration is already available and can be used. However, you must switch on the web server (see Chapter 14)
