Read Excel Cell

Read Excel Cell

Type: excel-read-cell  ·  Package: Excel Activities v1.0.0  ·  Output: object

Reads the value of a single cell. Use it when you only need a specific piece of information: a total in B10, a date in A1, a configuration parameter in a fixed cell.

How it works

Returns the value of the indicated cell (cell) of the sheet. Accepts session or path — see the two modes.

Required parameters

Parameter	Editor	Description
cell	expression	Cell address, e.g. "B3".

Optional parameters

Parameter	Editor	Description
session	expression	Excel Open session (instead of path).
path	expression	Route to .xlsx (required if there is no session).
sheet	expression	Name or 1-based index of the sheet. By default, the first.

Output

Returns a object with the cell value (text, number, date…). Convert it if you need with toNumber(...), str(...), etc.

Example

Read Excel Cell   path = = asset("config.xlsx")   sheet = "Parametros"   cell = "B2"   → output: limite
If   condition = = toNumber(limite) > 1000
 └─ then:
      Log   message = "Límite alto"
