What the Excel connector can do
Excel, through Microsoft Graph, lets apps read and change spreadsheet files kept in a team's OneDrive, SharePoint site, or shared group drive. With an Excel connection in type.com, an operations or finance Space can ask Claude to build a table, chart a set of numbers, or add rows to an existing worksheet, without anyone opening the file separately first.

FAQ
Questions people ask before connecting Excel
Can Claude edit Excel workbooks in type.com?
Yes. With an Excel connection shared to a Space, the agent can add tables, rows, or charts to a OneDrive or SharePoint workbook directly from a thread.
How do I authenticate Excel in type.com?
Excel uses Microsoft's OAuth sign-in, handled once by an admin when the connection is created, with Spaces chosen afterward.
Can Excel updates run on a recurring schedule?
Yes. A repeated task, such as appending a weekly totals row, can be set up as a type.com automation.
Is this the same as an MCP server for Excel?
Not exactly. type.com uses connectors and connections to give selected Spaces access to approved app tools and data. Some connectors use hosted MCP, while others use OAuth, API keys, service accounts, or custom APIs.
