Excel Add-In for GitHub

Build 24.0.9175

Releases

Tracks versioned releases in a repository, detailing associated tags, descriptions, and links to attached assets.

View-Specific Information

Select

The add-in uses the GitHub API to process WHERE clause conditions that are built with the following column and operators:

  • TagName supports the '=,IN' comparison operators.

For example, the following queries are processed server-side:

SELECT * FROM [Releases]
SELECT * FROM [Releases] WHERE [TagName] = 'Val1'

The add-in processes other filters client-side within the add-in.

The add-in uses the GitHub API to process ORDER BY clause conditions that are built with the following columns:

  • Name
  • CreatedAt

SELECT * FROM [Releases] ORDER BY [Name]
SELECT * FROM [Releases] ORDER BY [CreatedAt]

The add-in uses client-side processing when ordering by any other columns. This impacts performance.
