    Your user need to have this permission set EDIT IN EXCEL-ADMIN to be able to use feature Edit in Excel.
    In User Card set it.
     
     
     
     
    I hope so this hint solve your issue.

    Hello,
     
    The “Edit in Excel” issue usually occurs because the Business Central Excel add-in isn’t installed or enabled, the user is signed into Excel with a different account than their BC account, or pop-up/authentication settings block the Data Connector window.
     
    Other common causes include outdated Excel version, disabled external connections in Trust Center, missing BC permissions, or cached credentials.
     
    Ensuring the add-in is active, signing in with the correct account, updating Excel, and clearing credentials typically resolves the problem.
