To read data from a SQL Server database using OfficeScripts, you can make use of a server-side endpoint that exposes the data through an API. You can then use the fetch function to send a GET request to the endpoint and retrieve the data. Here’s an example of an OfficeScript that demonstrates the concept:
function main() { // Send a GET request to the server endpoint fetch('http://your-server-endpoint') .then(response => response.json()) .then(data => { // Process the retrieved data console.log(data); // Do something with the 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 exposes the SQL Server data through an API. 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 GET request to the server endpoint. The response is then converted to JSON using the response.json() method. You can then process the retrieved data as needed. In this example, the data is logged to the console using console.log(), but you can perform any desired actions or operations with the data.
Remember to implement the server-side logic to handle the GET request and retrieve the data from the SQL Server database 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.
