What's new
More capable
Import everything from Excel
Our new Excel importer is fast and accurate. You can bring in all of the formulas and formatting the platform supports, which makes it easy to move your work out of Excel.
Share best practices with templates
Create and share templates that include the formulas and formatting you use most. Never worry about fonts or colors again, with style guides that increase efficiency and consistency.
More formulas and flexibility
Spreadsheets now supports 30% more formulas than classic Workbooks, as well as cross-sheet formulas. Data validations also support cell ranges for increased flexibility.
Excel is a registered trademark of Microsoft Corporation in the United States and/or other countries.
Better connected
Connect to data across the platform
Use connected sheets to pull data from spreadsheets across workspaces and Wdata connectors to pull data from Wdata into your spreadsheets with a single click.
Share data with other teams
Published datasets in spreadsheets let you share data with other users across workspaces. Control updates to data until you're ready to share them.
Connect to any system, anywhere
Use connected sheets with Wdata connectors or the spreadsheets API to connect to your systems of record, create powerful workflows, and automate your work.
More collaborative
Create and reuse advanced permissions
Increase control with granular advanced permissions. When you're ready to reuse your permissions, just copy and paste into another document to save time.
Simplify sharing with filtered views
Use filtered views to create views of your data without impacting what others see. Every view includes a unique URL, which makes it easy to share.
Track progress
Create and customize outline labels in spreadsheets to keep track of status or see who's responsible for individual sheets.
More transparent
Audit trails for every cell
See who made any change, and follow the full history of every cell in your spreadsheet. Use formula properties to follow the formulas in every cell, just like properties in classic.
Visual reviews with overlays
Use overlays to see the formatting and settings of every cell in your spreadsheet. Toggle formula and link indicators in cells to simplify the view and focus on your data.
Authorship beyond overlays
See who contributed to every revision and milestone of your spreadsheet, which helps you track every change down to the last minute.
