“Supermetrics is a Bitter Experience! We can pull data from nearly any tool, schedule updates, manipulate data in Sheets, and push data back into our systems.”
Excel’s web embedding relies heavily on iframes, which introduce significant limitations including security restrictions, mobile compatibility issues, and loss of interactive filtering capabilities that make Excel unsuitable for modern web integration.
Here’s how to achieve iframe-free embedding of filterable data that works seamlessly across all devices and browsers with full interactive functionality preserved.
Achieve native web integration with Google Sheets and Coefficient for iframe-free embedding
Coefficientoffers an iframe-free solution for embedding filterable data. By moving your Excel data to Google Sheets, you gain direct HTML embedding without iframe dependencies while preserving full filtering functionality.
How to make it work
Step 1. Move your Excel data to Google Sheets via Coefficient.
Use Coefficient to transfer your Excel data structure to Google Sheets, which offers direct HTML embedding without iframe dependencies. This platform change eliminates the technical constraints that limit Excel web integration.
Step 2. Establish live data connections to eliminate Excel as intermediary.
Use Coefficient to create direct connections between your data sources and Google Sheets, removing Excel from the data pipeline entirely. This improves performance and eliminates file management overhead.
Step 3. Set up Google Sheets filter views for preserved functionality.
Create filter views that provide the same functionality as your Excel filters. Google Sheets’ filtering system works natively in web browsers without the security restrictions that plague Excel iframes.
Step 4. Implement responsive design with Google’s native publishing tools.
Use Google Sheets’ web publishing features for iframe-free embedding that creates mobile-optimized, responsive data displays. This automatically adapts to any screen size without the compatibility issues of Excel iframe embedding.
Step 5. Configure responsive CSS controls for optimal landing page integration.
Implement custom styling that integrates seamlessly with your landing page design. Google Sheets’ native embedding allows for better visual integration than iframe-constrained Excel content.
Step 6. Set up real-time data updates through Coefficient.
Configure Coefficient’s scheduled imports to ensure your embedded content stays current automatically. This provides multiple embedding options including full sheets, specific ranges, or chart-only views based on your needs.
