How to Import Tables Data from MySQL into Excel

Accessing your MySQL Tables data in Excel allows for straightforward data analysis without complex tools. Coefficient connects MySQL directly to your spreadsheet.

This guide shows you how to import your MySQL Tables data into Excel using Coefficient.

Step-by-step guide

Follow these steps to bring your MySQL Tables data into Excel.

Step 1: Install and Connect Coefficient

First, install Coefficient for Excel. Go to the Insert tab, click “Get Add-ins,” search for Coefficient, and install it from the store.

Open the Coefficient add-in from the Home tab. Select MySQL when prompted to connect a data source.

Log in to your MySQL account and authorize Coefficient to access your data.

Step 2: Import Tables Data

With MySQL connected, click “Import from…” in the Coefficient sidebar.

Select MySQL as your source. Then, choose “Tables” from the list of available objects to import.

You can refine the data by selecting specific fields or applying filters before clicking “Import” to add it to your Excel sheet.

Step 3: Set Up Auto-Refresh (Optional)

Keep your Tables data in Excel automatically updated. After importing, find the auto-refresh options in the Coefficient sidebar.

Schedule refreshes hourly, daily, or weekly. Your Excel sheet will then sync automatically with the latest table information from MySQL.
