Connect Excel Web with Excel desktop.
- For example, if you open a new page in Excel for the web, and want to create a table, all of this is easy to do.After that, you want to share this table or page, whatever it is, a link will simply be created to share.
After that, you will open desktop Excel, and you want to extract this table from the link that you copied a while ago. You will go to “Import data from a web link” and paste the link.
I think you are confusing something.
If you share a file from Sharepoint or OneDrive someone else gets a notification with a link. The person clicks on the link and is taken to the web app and the file is opened. Form there it is possible to open the file in the desktop app.
If the other person wants to connect to the shared file he needs a different URL. See this tutorial.
