Installing NetXcel

Add NetXcel to Excel yourself from the Office Add-ins Store, or have IT deploy it to the whole team with a manifest file.

Prerequisites

  • Windows 10+ or macOS (latest recommended)
  • A compatible Excel version (see below)
  • Internet connection
  • Access to the Office Add-ins Store, or permission to upload a manifest

Individual install (Office Add-ins Store)

Works in Excel desktop (Microsoft 365, Excel 2016+) and Excel for web.

  1. Search for NetXcel and add it: On the Home tab, click the Add-ins icon. Search "NetXcel" and click Add. NetXcel opens in the task pane.
Excel Home tab with the Add-ins icon highlighted and NetXcel found in the add-in search results with an Add button

Organization-wide deployment (manifest upload)

For centrally managed Office Add-ins, or if the Add-ins Store is blocked: get the netxcel.xml manifest from Maayins. In Excel, go to Insert, Office Add-ins, My Add-ins, Upload My Add-in, and select the file. Restart Excel if needed.

Troubleshooting

  • NetXcel doesn't appear after install: restart Excel and verify you're signed into your Microsoft 365 account
  • Add-ins Store is blocked: ask IT to whitelist the store, or use the manifest method instead
  • Manifest upload fails: check your Excel Trust Center settings for upload permissions
