The Generic Microsoft Excel Adapter is designed for streaming Generic Microsoft Excel only.

This streamed file content does not include all of the metadata associated with remotely stored Generic Microsoft Excel files, such as file and folder name.

If access to both the file metadata and the actual file content is needed, then the Generic Microsoft Excel Adapter must be used in tandem with the associated file system driver(s) for the service the Generic Microsoft Excel files are remotely stored in.

The following file system drivers are available:

• AmazonS3
• Box
• Dropbox
• FTP
• GoogleCloudStorage
• IBLCloudObjectStorage
• OneDrive
• SFTP

See the relevant CData file system driver's documentation for a configuration guide for connecting to stored Generic Microsoft Excel file metadata.
