To update data in a SQL Server database using OfficeScripts, you can utilize a similar approach as for appending and deleting data. You would make a PUT or PATCH request to the server-side endpoint that handles the database operations. Here’s an example of an OfficeScript that demonstrates the concept:
function main() { // Define the updated data let data = { id: 12345, name: "John Doe", age: 35, email: "[email protected]" }; // Send a PUT or PATCH request to the server endpoint fetch('http://your-server-endpoint', { method: 'PUT', // or 'PATCH' headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }, body: JSON.stringify(data) }) .then(response => { if (response.ok) { console.log("Data updated successfully."); } else { console.log("Failed to update 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 PUT or PATCH request and handles the database update 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 PUT or PATCH request to the server endpoint, depending on your specific requirements. It includes the appropriate headers and the JSON payload containing the updated data. 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 PUT or PATCH request and perform the necessary database update 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.
