What is a .xlsx file?
XLSX is the default Microsoft Excel format, an Office Open XML spreadsheet stored as a ZIP archive containing worksheet XML, shared strings, styles, and formulas. It supports multiple sheets, cell formatting, charts, and calculated values. It is the standard for editable tabular workbooks.
How to use this file
Use an example XLSX to test spreadsheet parsing, formula and multi-sheet handling, shared-string extraction, and pipelines that read or generate Excel workbooks.
