Hi @harishraj,
First you have to enable it

If you find it useful mark it as solution and close the thread.

hey @harishraj

If you want to indicate it before you want to select open Excel workspace

and there you want to place your value and save before using that excel close the excel and indicate it

[gulshiyaa]

Before indicating the excel close the excel and after indicate the value

go to this

And click conform

In excel application, go to options, addins-> com addins and check the uipath addin , save and restart.

Hi, I have the same error.

[Kashish_Sinduria]

Yep, I’ve tried this as well but still the same error.
It says this error:
20.4.0-beta.472

Failed to connect to the UiPath Excel Add-in. Please check that UiPath.Excel Add-in is installed by going to: Home | Tools | Excel Add-in

Any idea on this?

[studioX (Horia Belu)]

Verify task manager so no excel process is open/hung in there. Kill it if so. Then install addin again.
What office version do you use?

Hello, did you get a solution for that issue finally?

[studioX (Horia Belu)]

what studiox version are you using?
is office installed via windows store or using a msi?
do you see the addin in excel → options-> addins-> com addins ? is it present there but not enabled? can you try to enable it and try again to indicate after excel restart?

[GS04]

Dear Studio X,
Thanks for the prompt followup - very appreciated! here are my answers to those questions.

what studiox version are you using? => Studio X2020.4.1 Community license (latest version downloaded 3 weeks ago)
is office installed via windows store or using a msi? => Installed on windows
do you see the addin in excel → options-> addins-> com addins ? is it present there but not enabled? can you try to enable it and try again to indicate after excel restart? => I see the addin installed, and it’s a trusted publisher, however, there is an issue to run the addin:

Any clue why I have such an issue? I have run the Uipath.integration.excelAddin.vsto for the “app-20.4.1”/ not the beta (as instructed in the “UiPath Excel Addin Installation Troubleshooting v4 (1)” )

Many thanks for your support!
