Save and Activate the Scenario

After configuring Microsoft Excel, CloudConvert, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.

Test the Scenario

Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Microsoft Excel and CloudConvert integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Microsoft Excel and CloudConvert (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.

Most powerful ways to connect Microsoft Excel and CloudConvert

Microsoft Excel + CloudConvert + Google Drive: When a new workbook is created in Microsoft Excel, it is automatically converted to PDF using CloudConvert. The resulting PDF file is then saved to a specified folder in Google Drive for archiving.

CloudConvert + Microsoft Excel + Email: When a CloudConvert job finishes (e.g., converting a document), the resulting data is extracted and a new row is added to an existing Microsoft Excel sheet. A summary of the updated Excel sheet is then sent via email.
