What I’m trying to do

I’m trying to import data from an Excel (.xlsx) file to be displayed within the Obsidian environment. The data in the Excel files are primarily used there, but it would be nice to be able to reference them from Obsidian pages.

Things I have tried

I’ve been playing around with Dataview, and it turns out you can import and display data from a CSV file!

TABLE Name
FROM "mycsv.csv"

Unfortunately, pointing it to a .xlsx file does not work. Am I missing something obvious?

No. There is support for .csv files (and partially for .tsv files), but dataview don’t know anything about .xlsx files. If you can export it as a csv, you’ll be better off.

Unfortunate. Thanks!
