Spreadsheet Mashables
You can use Excel spreadsheets as a mashable information source in MashZone NextGen by registering cell ranges as:
A snapshot of data for Excel spreadsheets on your local computer or any accessible network drive. With local spreadsheets, you must reregister to update the spreadsheet mashable in
MashZone NextGen if you update spreadsheet data and want that information to be accessible in
MashZone NextGen.
A dynamic source of data for Excel spreadsheets that are accessible remotely via HTTP. Remote access allows
MashZone NextGen to retrieve current data whenever the mashable information source is used.
Note: Remote spreadsheet mashables are handled as REST mashables in MashZone NextGen. With remote spreadsheet mashables, MashZone NextGen administrators can also control HTTP response headers and timeouts for connections.
