Support for Sharepoint in Microsoft Excel node

Feature Requests Nodes
1

I am working on migrating a client from google workspace to Microsoft. To my surprise, I realized that the current node does not work with Microsoft Excel files that are on Sharepoint vs. in your personal OneDrive. It doesn’t find the files when you look for them, and pasting in the item ID doesn’t work either.

This means I’ll have to work with the API directly which is quite a pain considering the amount of work that is abstracted by the node.

I think it’d be a relatively simple adjustment to include some options for Sharepoint files within Microsoft Excel nodes.

I’m on n8n cloud with this particular client so I can’t make our own node. I have a developer I would happily pay to help update the node for this purpose if it could be merged into n8n.

+1! Would be amazing if we could add a similar function like the Make.com Excel node has. Giving the option to select the OneDrive Location (My Drive, Site’s Drive or Group Drive) and go from there.

+1 same issue.

I also found that out the hard way today after cussing at Azure and Sharepoint permissions and digging up the file ID manually etc.

Would be a really nice feature to have considering a lot of organizations work with Sharepoint.

+1 here! I have a flow that collects data from submitted surveys and is supposed to add each one as a new row in an Excel spreadsheet in SharePoint, but the Excel 365 node can’t access the spreadsheet. I’m trying to recreate the behavior with extract / convert nodes but it’s proving a challenge.

Really glad I found this thread, I was going down a rabbit hole of MS permissions thinking it was something I had configured wrong on my end.
