Microsoft Excel Integration

Connect Responsly with Microsoft Excel so new survey responses flow into a spreadsheet in OneDrive / Excel Online—ideal for live dashboards, pivot tables, and shared reporting without manual exports after every wave.

For a one-time file download instead of continuous sync, use How do I export survey data?. For Google’s equivalent, see Save responses to Google Sheets.

Microsoft Excel integration in Responsly Integrations

Before you begin

Make sure you have:

  • a Responsly account with integration permissions,
  • a Microsoft 365 account with OneDrive or Excel Online access,
  • a survey in Responsly whose results you want to send to Excel.

Step 1: Enable the integration

  • Log in to Responsly and open the survey you want to connect.
  • Go to Integrations and choose Microsoft Excel.
  • Click Connect.

Step 2: Connect your Microsoft account

When prompted:

  • sign in using your Microsoft 365 credentials,
  • grant Responsly permission to access and edit Excel files in your OneDrive or Excel Online.

Once connected, the integration status will show Connected.

Step 3: Choose where responses are saved

You can:

  • create a New workbook – Responsly will create a new Excel file for this survey’s responses, or
  • choose an Existing workbook – link a file and pick the worksheet to use.

Responsly creates columns for your survey questions and writes each response into a new row.

Choose new or existing Excel workbook and worksheet

Step 4: Verify everything works

  1. Submit a test response in Responsly.
  2. Open the linked Excel file.
  3. Confirm that:
    • a new row has been added,
    • data appears in the correct columns.

If something doesn’t look right (missing field, misaligned column, etc.), adjust your integration settings and test again.

Verify new rows and column mapping in Excel

You can change which workbook or worksheet is used, adjust which fields are synced, or disable the integration at any time if you no longer want data flowing into Excel. For custom server-side handling of each submission, Webhooks may complement this integration.

FAQ

How do I connect Responsly to Microsoft Excel?

Open your survey, go to Integrations → Microsoft Excel, click Connect, sign in with Microsoft 365, grant file access, then choose a new or existing workbook and worksheet where each response should be written as a new row.

Does the Excel integration use OneDrive?

Yes. The connection works with Excel files stored in OneDrive or Excel Online so your team can open the same workbook from Microsoft 365.

Can I send responses into a workbook my team already uses?

You can link an existing workbook and select the worksheet. Responsly adds columns for your questions and appends a row per submission; verify column alignment with a test response before going live.
