| -# Get started with the Excel connector |
20 |
| -There is no Excel connector in Logic Apps. |
| 15 | +# Manage Excel Online data with Azure Logic Apps |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +With Azure Logic Apps and the Excel Online connector, |
| 18 | +you can create automated tasks and workflows based |
| 19 | +on your data in Excel Online for Business or OneDrive. |
| 20 | +Your workflows can perform these actions and others with |
| 21 | +your data, for example: |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | +* Create new worksheets and tables. |
| 24 | +* Get and manage worksheets, tables, and rows. |
| 25 | +* Add single rows and key columns. |
| 26 | + |
| 27 | +You can include actions in your logic apps that use the output |
| 28 | +from Excel Online actions. This connector provides only actions, |
| 29 | +so to start your logic app, use a separate trigger, such as |
| 30 | +a **Recurrence** trigger. For example, if you create worksheets |
| 31 | +each week, you can send email about those new worksheets using |
| 32 | +the Office 365 Outlook connector. |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | +If you're new to logic apps, review |
| 35 | +[What is Azure Logic Apps?](../logic-apps/logic-apps-overview.md) |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | +> [!NOTE] |
| 38 | +> The [Excel Online for Business](/connectors/excelonlinebusiness/) |
| 39 | +> and [Excel Online for OneDrive](/connectors/excelonline/) connectors |
| 40 | +> work with Azure Logic Apps and differ from the |
| 41 | +> [Excel connector for PowerApps](/connectors/excel/). |
| 42 | +
|
| 43 | +## Prerequisites |
| 44 | + |
| 45 | +* An Azure subscription. If you don't have an Azure subscription, |
| 46 | +<a href="https://azure.microsoft.com/free/" target="_blank">sign up for a free Azure account</a>. |
| 47 | + |
| 48 | +* An [Office 365 account](https://www.office.com/) |
| 49 | +for your work account or personal Microsoft account |
| 50 | + |
| 51 | + Your Excel data can exist as a comma-separated |
| 52 | + value (CSV) file in a storage folder, for example, in OneDrive. |
| 53 | + You can also use the same CSV file with the |
| 54 | + [flat-file connector](../logic-apps/logic-apps-enterprise-integration-flatfile.md). |
| 55 | + |
| 56 | +* Basic knowledge about |
| 57 | +[how to create logic apps](../logic-apps/quickstart-create-first-logic-app-workflow.md) |
| 58 | + |
| 59 | +* The logic app where you want to access your Excel Online data. |
| 60 | +This connector provides only actions, so to start your logic app, |
| 61 | +select a separate trigger, for example, the **Recurrence** trigger. |
| 62 | + |
| 63 | +## Add Excel action |
| 64 | + |
| 65 | +1. In the [Azure portal](https://portal.azure.com), open your |
| 66 | +logic app in the Logic App Designer, if not already open. |
| 67 | + |
| 68 | +1. Under the trigger, choose **New step**. |
| 69 | + |
| 70 | +1. In the search box, enter "excel" as your filter. Under the actions list, |
| 71 | +select the action you want. |
| 72 | + |
| 73 | +1. If prompted to sign in to your Office 365 account, choose **Sign in**. |
| 74 | + |
| 75 | + Your credentials authorize your logic app to create a |
| 76 | + connection to Excel Online and access your data. |
| 77 | + |
| 78 | +1. Continue providing the necessary details for the selected action |
| 79 | +and building your logic app's workflow. |
| 80 | + |
