    <title>topic Access excel file based on path in Qlik Automate</title>

    <description>&lt;P&gt;TLDR : I want to access an Excel file based on a sharepoint path I give manually.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;What I've tried : you can give to a "Open file on Microsoft Sharepoint"&amp;nbsp;component a path directly linking to a document, and then use a "Read Data From File on MS" to open it but it only works for CSV and JSON documents.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="MaximP_1-1713454337073.png" style="width: 400px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://community.qlik.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/164316iEB5E0416BF076D2E/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;amp;px=400" role="button" title="MaximP_1-1713454337073.png" alt="MaximP_1-1713454337073.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;You can also acces the document based on a Drive ID and Item ID with a "List Rows With Headers" for example. This solution however needs me to access every item of the file tree until i get to the file containing the excel wich is not really sustainable.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="MaximP_3-1713454808243.png" style="width: 400px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://community.qlik.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/164318iDF584D4394F51B8D/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;amp;px=400" role="button" title="MaximP_3-1713454808243.png" alt="MaximP_3-1713454808243.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;So I would need a component that either open an xlsx document based on a path or give a Drive ID and Item ID based on a path.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Any other idea would help.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Thanks in advance,&lt;/P&gt;

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://community.qlik.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/248727"&gt;@MaximP&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Could you please let me know which file types are you not able to read by adding path manually to the open file block?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;It would be good if you could share the automation workspace and automation run json file.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Thanks&lt;/P&gt;</description>
