i'm trying to read xlsx file in xmlport but i get error: '', hexadecimal value 0x03, is an invalid character. Line 1, position 81.
but when i copy the data too csv it works fine. is there anyway to fix this?
XLSX is not a pure XML file.
If you rename XLSX into zip and then extract that, then you will see that is made of a lot of files.
If you have an XSLX file you should read it through Excel utilities. You might find some piece of code inside the standard application how to handle XLSX files (e.g. check rapidstart).
You can refer to "Import budget from Excel" report on how to import excel file. But you need to change the import file to use Stream if you are using business central cloud.
You can use below code upload file to blob
Use below code to get excel sheet from stream
Use below code to read the excel book from stream
so i should import the file using excel buffer right?
and can i skip columns and rows in excel buffer?
ty both i did it i had to remove all xml code and make excel buffer to get the data, thank you
