TableBinding.addRowsAsync method

Adds rows and values to a table.

bindingObj.addRowsAsync(rows, [,options], callback);

Parameters

rows
    Type: Array

    An array of arrays that contains one or more rows of data to add to the table. Required.

options
    Type: object

    Specifies the following optional parameters.

    _asyncContext_
        Type: array, boolean, null, number, object, string, or undefined

        A user-defined item of any type that is returned in the AsyncResult object without being altered. Optional.

callback
        Type: object

    A function that is invoked when the callback returns, whose only parameter is of type AsyncResult. Optional.

Callback Value

When the function you passed to the callback parameter executes, it receives an AsyncResult object that you can access from the callback function's only parameter.

In the callback function passed to the addRowsAsync method, you can use the properties of the AsyncResult object to return the following information.

Remarks

The success or failure of an addRowsAsync operation is atomic. That is, the entire add rows operation must succeed, or it will be completely rolled back (and the AsyncResult.status property returned to the callback will report failure):

• Each row in the array you pass as the data argument must have the same number of columns as the table being updated. If not, the entire operation will fail.

• Each row and cell in the array must successfully add that row and cell to the table in the newly added row(s). If any row or cell fails to be set for any reason, the entire operation will fail.

Additional remarks for Excel Online

The total number of cells in the value passed to the rows parameter can't exceed 20,000 in a single call to this method.

Example

function addRowsToTable() {
    Office.context.document.bindings.getByIdAsync("myBinding", function (asyncResult) {
        var binding = asyncResult.value;
        binding.addRowsAsync([["6", "k"], ["7", "j"]]);
    });
}
