Excel Process Plugin for Dify

A lightweight Excel-focused plugin for Dify that extracts every piece of textual cell content together with any embedded images inside .xlsx workbooks.

Overview

Excel Process bundles tools purpose-built for reading spreadsheets. The current tool transparently handles modern .xlsx and legacy .xls files, iterates over all sheets and rows, produces a human-readable text representation, and surfaces embedded media (xl/media assets in .xlsx files or OLE streams in .xls) so downstream workflows can reason over both data and imagery.

Features

• Extract and format text from every worksheet in an Excel file (.xlsx/.xls)
• Export every embedded image as a separate binary response
• Preserve sheet names and row ordering for clarity

Available Tools

Excel Extractor

Reads an Excel workbook and streams the parsed content.

• Excel Content: .xlsx or .xls file whose text and images should be extracted
