Release· Databricks release notes (AWS)
Databricks Excel Add-in is generally available
The Databricks Excel Add-in is now generally available. It lets Microsoft Excel connect to a Databricks workspace to browse and import governed Unity Catalog tables and views, run SQL queries, build pivot tables, use custom functions, and write data back to Unity Catalog. Live query can also be enabled for pivot tables so results update as fields change.
Analysts who use Excel can work with governed Databricks data without leaving Excel.
