To append data to a SQL Server database using OfficeScripts, you can make use of the ‘node-fetch’ library to send HTTP requests to a server-side endpoint that handles the database operations. However, please note that OfficeScripts are primarily designed for automating tasks within Excel and are not intended for direct integration with external databases. Here’s an example of an OfficeScript that demonstrates the concept:
function main() { // Define the data to be appended let data = { name: "John Doe", age: 30, email: "[email protected]" }; // Send a POST request to the server endpoint fetch('http://your-server-endpoint', { method: 'POST', headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }, body: JSON.stringify(data) }) .then(response => { if (response.ok) { console.log("Data appended successfully."); } else { console.log("Failed to append data."); } }) .catch(error => { console.log("Error occurred: " + error.message); }); }
Please note that this code assumes you have a server-side endpoint (http://your-server-endpoint) that accepts the POST request and handles the database append operation. You need to replace http://your-server-endpoint with the appropriate URL for your server-side endpoint.
The example uses the fetch() function to send a POST request to the server endpoint. It includes the appropriate headers and the JSON payload containing the data to be appended. The response from the server is then checked to determine the success or failure of the operation, and the corresponding message is logged to the console.
Remember to implement the server-side logic to handle the POST request and perform the necessary database append operation using SQL Server-specific libraries or frameworks.
Please note that OfficeScripts are currently only supported in Excel for the web and Excel Online. They are not available in the desktop version of Excel.
