Excel Workbook Importer (.xlsx)

DataLoom Pro parses Excel spreadsheets natively in the Unity Editor without requiring Microsoft Office or any external COM DLL dependencies.

Direct XML Extraction

Standard Excel files (.xlsx) are zipped packages containing XML files. DataLoom Pro:

• Reads the file as a structured zip stream.
• Extracts unique strings from the workbook’s shared string table (sharedStrings.xml).
• Maps cell values from the worksheet sheet tables (xl/worksheets/sheet1.xml).
• Translates values directly into clean string arrays.

Configuration Settings

You can select a specific worksheet tab to parse (if your workbook has multiple sheets) inside your DataLoomProSettings asset. By default, DataLoom parses the first sheet.
