workbook and sheet name via formula
I have a standard header I put on almost every excel workbook I create I have been using for years. It includes several standard items, including Workbook name and Worksheet name, which are extracted...

Afraid for Excel Online that's only with Office Script, there are properties getName both for workbook and worksheet.
VBA and related functions don't work in Excel Online.

yeah, VBA is supported in O365 - this question is specific to Excel documents being intereacted with through a web browser (Excel online) though.
The CELL function which works on desktop does not work with online (weirdly), and same is true of VBA.
It's a pretty small detail (CELL formula not working online), not a critical functionality, just annoying to me, because I literally use the same header on every document as a matter of best practice.

- you may always check if function available for online version or not here Excel functions (alphabetical) In particular, what it says for CELL
- you may vote for the idea to add CELL() for the online version here CELL function added to online . In theory more votes more chances it'll be added.
- Perhaps one day functionality of desktop and online versions will be synced, at least that's how I understand Microsoft intention. But with that most probably not VBA will go online but Office Script will go on desktop. That's a long way.
