Surprisingly is compiled well. No errors! But it's a usual "behemoth sample" and when I have run it from within VS 2005 it has started well, logged in to my Office 365 Dev account but then it just has fallen when I have tried to upload a test workbook. Never mind, I haven't read any docs, I could have done something unexpected to this sample app. If one "dives-in" into?ExcelRESTService.UWP.csproj. \Model subfoler) of this sample app they will find how the SDK wraps MS Excel REST API calls. There is a also a unit tests project?ExcelRESTService.UnitTests.UWP.csproj within this sample solution. Still, it would be useful to find/have something like a simple C# console application demonstrating how to use the MS Excel REST API and SDK to manipulate??a test workbook on the MS Office 365 web site. Does anybody here have any links on such a sample app? Thank you. -- Shamil >Thursday, August 11, 2016 10:47 AM +03:00 from Gustav Brock : > >Hi all > >This could prove useful: > >https://blogs.office.com/2016/08/03/announcing-the-general-availability-of-the-microsoft-excel-api-to-expand-the-power-of-office-365/ > >Notice the code examples here: > >https://dev.office.com/code-samples#?filters=excel,office%20365%20app > >This API grants you access to the on-line Excel "engine" at Office 365 from your application.
