Data Streaming between odt and calc docs

[sswcharlie]

Still trying to get a result this time between docs. Cannot find a video to explain.
If I create a calc sheet and save and use datastream, it comes up with the interface. I enter a doc from the dropdown, say an odt doc. If I then add code to the document I selected in the dropdown, should that entry be datastreamed to the new calc doc in allocated range. With the entry to the dropdown file do I need to have a
‘enter’ key after it. Have tried both with no luck as yet.
Apologies for being a nusance.
Basically is this how it should work or have I missed ssomething.

Not sure how further it’s been from 2013 : data streams in 4.2

Hi Kohei,
Is it possible to provide a sample usage for that screen ? Or is it too early to ask.

It’s a bit too early, but I can provide a rough use of that feature. in the URL, you point to a file that contains data you want to stream. Currently we only support CSV file format, and the data needs to be static (unlike what you might be led to believe given the name of the feature).

apparently just technical :

• https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/44850
• datastreamimport.cxx - OpenGrok history log for /core/sc/source/filter/xml/datastreamimport.cxx

as far as I could try (LO7.6), couldn’t even get an activve OK button

concerning your request …

probably wiser to try some macro and/or external program.
