About this integration

Connect Excel to Definable to automate repetitive tasks, sync data with the rest of your stack, trigger on real-world events. Personas call Excel's 54 tools directly from chat or scheduled flows. You can wire it into any persona to read, write, and react when an event fires.

Connect Excel to Definable and it becomes a set of typed tools your agents plan with — triggered by events, run on schedules, or invoked mid-conversation. Every write is checked by the verifier before it lands.

FAQ · Excel

Questions, answered.

What teams ask before connecting Excel.

01 What can I automate with Excel on Definable?

Personas can call any of the 54 Excel tools directly, then chain the result into another integration without you writing code.

02 How does Excel authentication work?

Excel uses OAUTH2, S2S_OAUTH2 on Definable. You connect once from the integrations page, scoped to the permissions you choose, and from then on any persona that has the integration enabled can act on your behalf. Tokens are encrypted at rest and rotated automatically.

03 Is the Excel integration included in my Definable plan?

Yes — every Definable plan, including Starter, includes access to all 54 Excel tools. You only need a separate Excel subscription if Excel itself charges per seat or per API call.

04 Is using Excel through Definable secure?

Every call from a persona to Excel is logged with the user, persona, prompt, and response. Tokens never leave Definable's secrets vault, scopes are configurable per persona, and you can revoke access at any time from the integration page.

05 How do I get started with Excel on Definable?

Sign up for Definable, open the integrations page, find Excel, and connect via OAuth or API key. You can immediately attach Excel to any persona and start running workflows. The free Starter plan includes 5,000 credits/month.

06 What Excel actions does Definable expose?

Definable exposes all 54 Excel actions as callable tools — including `Add Chart`, `Add SharePoint Worksheet`, `Add Table`, plus 51 more. Each tool gets a typed parameter schema so personas know exactly how to call it.
