Excel Online integration setup guide
Connect Microsoft Excel Online with the Flinque influencer marketing platform to push creator data and campaign reports directly into Excel workbooks stored in OneDrive or SharePoint.
What you can do with the Excel Online integration
- Push to Excel workbooks: export creator and campaign data directly to Excel files
- OneDrive and SharePoint: works with personal OneDrive and SharePoint document libraries
- Live data refresh: set up scheduled refreshes for ongoing reports
- Custom column mapping: map Flinque fields to your Excel column structure
- Multi-workbook support: push different data types to different workbooks
- Microsoft 365 enterprise: works with M365 corporate accounts subject to admin approval
Before you begin
- A Flinque account on the Starter plan or above
- A Microsoft 365 account (personal or business)
- OneDrive or SharePoint access for storing Excel files
- For Microsoft 365 Business accounts, admin approval may be required to install third-party apps
Setup steps
Open the Integrations page in Flinque
Log into your Flinque workspace at platform.flinque.com. Go to Settings → Integrations. Find Excel Online and click Connect.
Sign in with Microsoft
Click Sign in with Microsoft. Use your Microsoft 365 credentials. Approve the requested scopes (Files.ReadWrite, Sites.ReadWrite.All for SharePoint).
Choose default storage location
Select where Flinque should save Excel files. Options include OneDrive root, a specific OneDrive folder, or a SharePoint document library.
Save and test export
Click Save. From any creator list or campaign in Flinque, click Export → Excel Online to test the integration.
Troubleshooting
“Need admin approval”
Microsoft 365 Business and Enterprise tenants restrict third-party apps. Ask your IT admin to approve Flinque in your tenant’s app management settings.
SharePoint folder not appearing
Confirm you have at least Edit access on the target SharePoint document library. Read-only access does not allow Flinque to write files.
Workbook formatting lost on export
Flinque exports raw data into Excel cells. Custom formatting, formulas, and charts in the destination workbook are preserved as long as they reference different cell ranges.
Disconnecting the integration
- In Flinque, go to Settings → Integrations → Excel Online and click Disconnect
- Optionally revoke Flinque’s access at account.live.com/consent/Manage (personal) or via Microsoft 365 admin center (business)
