Power Pivot

Question

Hi all

I'd like to get started with Excel Power Pivot and AccountRight 2018.4 cloud.

Does anyone know what is needed to connect Excel Power Pivot to AR?

eg.  Do I need an API?

Thanks in advance

Hi Mke

Thanks for your continued assistance/persistence.

Neither url works.  I'm not sure where I'd find my local ID to replace the blue.

Confirming that my file is in the cloud....

Regards

Hi @DavidFisher, if you open a browser and type in http://localhost:8080/AccountRight/, do you see a list of company files from your local library? If so, you can drill down on any line, and see what resources are available.

However, you will need to modify the URL to add the API version, Eg: http://localhost:8080/AccountRight/3ae6a4e1-4acf-48c5-bde6-40fac54cd4ef?x-myobapi-version=v2.

You will need to replace the blue text with the file id from your own system.

Version 2 of the API allows you to access many more endpoints.

I'm assuming the file you want to analyse is in a local library. If it is in the cloud, that's another story.
