Excel web access web part Refresh

Dear All,
Please let me adress my SharePoint issues to you.
Current situation:
I currently have an excel file stored in one of my sharepoint libraries.
The excel file has two tabs.
The first tab contains data exported from a sharepoint list (with data connection)
The second tab has a customized table based on the first tab.
I created a page and added a Excel Web Access web part. The above mentioned excel file (tab2) is viewed in this web part.
Problem:
Everytime I change something in my sharepoint list, the changes will not be viewed in the web part. The changes will only view when I open the excel file in the library first, and then save it.
Question:
Is there a way I can refresh the data automatically, or manually without having to leave the page of the web part?
If anyone has a solution please let me know, thank you for your help!
Bob

you can configure automatic data refresh. fairly simple. this article is for SQL data source, but the same process applies across the board.

Excel Web Access Web Part on O365 SharePoint...

Excel Web Access Web Part on O365 SharePoint seems to run VERY slow on excel oData SharePoint list query/refresh.
Is there anything that can be done to speed this? Thanks

Hi Alan,
O365 SharePoint is hosted on the Microsoft cloud, we cannot check what may cause Excel oData query/refresh very slow, I would recommend you post this issue in our dedicated O365 forum for a better assistance. If the issue is related to O365 SharePoint
server side, there may involve
O365 back end support engineer to look into this issue.

How to save edited data Workbook in Excel Web Access web part?

Hello All, I have one Workbook which is displayed on Excel Web Access web part in SharePoint 2013. If I edit data in workbook it is not getting saved. Am i missing anything here? please help.
Thanks

Hi,
We can click “OPEN IN EXCEL” to open and save the Excel file, then the edited data will be saved.
If you display a chart in Excel, we can create a InfoPath form to edit the excel Workbook, here is a blog for your reference:

Visio Web Access web part connection order

I have a Visio Web Access webpart that is currently connected to 3 different query filter webparts. Here is what the query filter webparts are doing
- #1 - This is passing in the page name to the "Web Drawing Url and Page Name" connection
- #2 - This is passing in the shape name to the "Shapes to Highlight" connection
- #3 - This is passing in the shape name to the "Shape to View" connection
#2 and #3 pull from the same query string variable because I want to highlight AND center/zoom on a selected shape. Everything works fine if I am already on the default page for the drawing but if I need to have it show a different page the highlighting
works but the center/zoom functionality does not work.
I assume this occurs because it is doing the zoom/center before it changes drawings. I tried changing the order in which I made the connections so that the center/zoom would come last but that did not work.
How can I make it so that it will do the center/zoom on pages that are not the default?

I have 3 query string filter web parts and they are all connected to the Visio Web Access web part through the browser. There is no problem in setting up the connections. The problem is that trying to change pages, highlight a shape, and zoom
in/center on a shape in the same page load does not always perform as expected. Here is a more elaborate description of what I'm doing:
I have two query strings, "OfficeFloor" and "Employee" which are being passed into the web page. The query string web part for "Web
Drawing Url and Page Name" grabs the page name from "OfficeFloor" because each of my pages in the Visio drawing represents a floor plan ("1st Floor", "2nd Floor", etc.). The query string web parts for "Shapes
to Highlight" and "Shape to View" BOTH pull from "Employee" because each shape in the Visio drawing represents
where an employee sits. So an example request for the page would be "http://www.website.com/EmployeeFinder.aspx?OfficeFloor=3rdFloor&Employee=BobSmith" which would ideally make the Visio Web Access web part go to the page for the 3rd floor and then
zoom/center and highlight where Bob Smith sits.
If the "3rd Floor" page is the default page for the Visio web access then it works fine and it zooms in, centers on, and highlights the "Bob Smith" shape. However, if the "3rd Floor" page is not the default then it will only highlight
the "Bob Smith" shape and NOT zoom in/ center on it.

Using Visio Web Access Web Part to dynamically display visio drawings in document library according to which folder a user is viewing

I have a document library web part in SharePoint 2010. There is also a Visio Web Access Web Part on the same site, side by side with the doc lib. In the folder structure of the document library web part (it is pretty complex and a few levels deep),
each folder contains one and one only Visio diagram. I want the Visio web access web part to display the visio drawing that exists in what ever folder the user is currently browsing. For example.. if the file structure is as follows below and a user clicks
on folder A from the list I would like the Visio Web Access web part to display the visio diagram that lives in folder A. Same for any folder at all anywhere in the structure that the user is viewing, dynamically changing as the user browses the directory.
Is this possible?
1.0 Folder A
1.1 Word Doc
1.2 Visio Doc
1.3 Folder a.1
    1.3.1 Word Doc
    1.3.2 Visio Doc
    1.2.3 PDF Doc
    1.2.4 Folder
2.0 Folder B
2.1 Word doc
2.2 Visio doc
2.3 pdf doc
2.4 Folder B.1

Got this to work. Made a new data view in a designer for document library. Created parameter and used it to filter the data view. Then I connected the visio's shape data to the parameter and OOB sorting and filtering works as expected.

Excel Services and Excel Web Access Web Part on O365 SharePoint...

I am using O365 E3 w/SharePoint and I have successfully created Pivot Charts via PowerPivot to query oData feeds from a couple of SharePoint lists. I was not able to refresh the data on O365 until I performed
this operation.
I updated the data connections in the report to refresh when the report is opened (which runs when the page with a referenced chart is accessed), but now there is a "Query and Refresh Data" warning that appears when the page is loaded; poor UX.
I have read that there is a way to turn off this warning in SharePoint on-prem, but that doesn't help me with this nagging dialog box. I tried to move the report to a BI site in the collection and changed the report to use data connection files in the Data
Collection Library hoping for enough trust for this message to cease, but ... No joy.
Is there anything That I can do to keep the refresh on page load and lose the warning on O365? Maybe there is a Javascsript workaround someone can help with (I'm not much of a JS Dev).

Hi,
According to your post, I have done a test in my SharePoint on-line and reappeared your issue.
If the issue occurred at SharePoint on- premise, go to SharePoint Central Administration > Application Management > Service Applications > Manage service applications > Excel Services
application > Trusted File Locations and click on the Address that contains the workbook. In the External Data section, under Warn on Refresh, uncheck Refresh warning enabled and click OK.
Refer to the following link:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/excel_services__powerpivot_for_sharepoint_support_blog/archive/2013/10/22/excel-services-query-warning.aspx
Unfortunately, the feature to disable the ‘Data Refresh Warning’ is not available yet in SharePoint Online.
Because the option needs the SharePoint Central Admin level permission that is not opened to the public in Office 365 now.

Excel web access: Parameters in external data sources not supported???

I have a SharePoint 2013 site with Excel services.
The site itself has a Current User Filter Web Part which gives filter value [userID] to a Excel web access -web part.
In the Excel itself I have a named area(UserIDfromSharePoint) defined as a parameter.
This parameter is being used in a Microsoft Query into an SQL database table:
Select * from [MyTable] where UserID = ?
The question mark is set as a parameter to the named area UserIDfromSharePoint.
When I set the Excel Web Access -web part to show my workbook, I get the following error:
"We're sorry. We can't open the workbook in the browser because it uses these unsupported features: • PivotTable reports that are set to refresh
when the item in a report filter changes, or external data ranges (also called query tables)
that use parameters"
Is this really true???!??
If I have understood correctly, this has been an issue since the dawn of SharePoints Excel web services.
Does Microsoft really in this age of big data assume that all the SQL queries should be unfiltered or static?
My table has over 3M rows, so it is not possible to bring the whole dataset into excel and filter there. I'll have to say to the customer that we need to build a reporting table into which we'll aggregate the data first rather than querying the necessary
information...

Hi,
Do you mean that you have Office 2007 and Office 2010 both installed in you computer?
Based on my test, I copy a Access 2010 database into a computer only installed Offic 2007, then using Excel 2007 to import Access database data, no error occurred.
So double click the Access database to see whether the databased is opened with Access 2007 or Access 2010. If it is opened with Access 2010, then try to save it as Access 2007 to
check the issue.

Hi h0mely,
I would suggest you the following thread:

Make sure the data connection library is added to trusted location.
If you are using NTML for authentication, use SSO or None for the data connections excel serviced authentication settings, if Kerberos, make sure it is configured correct.

Hi Tracy,
Have you changed something on your SharePoint 2007 environment recently before this issue occurred?
This issue may be related to Alternate Access Mappings settings like the following similar post, if you have configured AAM, you can check if this issue happened to some URLs, if it's the case, please add the problematic URLs as a Publish URLs for the default
zone for your web application, and also add these URLs as trusted locations, then check results again.
If above doesn't work, please enable ULS log on verbose level to get more useful log errors which time are corresponding to the errors occur.

Issue with Excel Web Access --Excel graph showing only gray color

I am using "Excel Web Access" Web Parts to show the excel graphs in my MOSS2007 setup. I have multiple team sites under one site-collection. Excel web access is fine for all the team sites but , its showing only gray color for just one site. I tried to upload
new excel sheet with different graphs but still it shows the same gray color.
Any help would be really appreciated.

SharePoint 2013 (Foundation) and Outlook Web Access WebPart (OWAPart)

Hi, I've read most MSDN forum threads relating to this topic, however, I haven't seen my issue anywhere.
We're running SP 2013 foundation, and I want to use the Outlook Web Access web part. I followed the steps outlined here:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/shawa/archive/2014/06/01/owa-web-part-in-sharepoint-2013.aspx
(Sorry, can't add link since I'm new around here)
To make the WebPart available in the site collection. Which worked.
When I try to actually add the WebPart to a page though, I get an error message stating: "There was an error adding the component to the page" (roughly translated from french).
If I try to see the web part properties from the site settings > Web Parts, I get a SharePoint error page, and the help link yields no information.
Most problems I've seen are with the actual configuration of the WebPart, but I can't even get to that step.

I dont think you can use Outlook web app for foundation. This is not possible because those Web parts use Microsoft.SharePoint.Portal.dll
which is not avaliable and registered on SharePoint Foundation.
Instead of using the OWA web parts, you could also try using the Page Viewer web part and set it to the OWA URLs...
If this helped you resolve your issue, please mark it Answered

Question about "Get Web Drawing URL and Page Name From" for Visio Web Access

I am trying to get both the web drawing URL and the page name from a list through Share Point Designer 2013, but it doesn´t work.
It looks fine when a do the web part connection wizard. I select from which columns to get the URL and the page name. But on the final web part page nothing happens. It just shows the URL that is selected in the Visio Web Access Web part. I had hoped that
that value should be overrided by the SPD-settings.
I have googled for hours..

Hello,
I have now saved the Visio-file in .vdw-format, but it says Visio 2010 Web Drawing (*.vdw). Is there a .vdw-format for 2013? Isn´t that the .vsdx-format?
Still doesn´t work with the .vdw-format, but maybe I am doing something wrong.
Any ideas?
