How It Works

From an Excel Worksheet Row to a Verified Credential

Set up the integration once, then every new row in your Excel worksheet issues a credential through the same automated workflow.

Microsoft Excel
01

A new row is added

Someone adds a new row to your Excel worksheet in OneDrive or SharePoint, with the recipient's name and email.

02

The trigger reaches Wauld

A Power Automate flow, a Zapier automation, or a custom trigger carries the spreadsheet data straight to Wauld.

03

The credential is issued

Wauld maps the row to your chosen template and issues the certificate or badge in seconds.

Your recipient receives their credential

A verifiable certificate or badge arrives in their inbox, ready to download, verify, and add to a LinkedIn profile.

FAQs

Everything you need to know about connecting Microsoft Excel and issuing digital credentials

How do I connect Microsoft Excel to Wauld?

Keep your recipient data in an Excel worksheet stored in OneDrive or SharePoint, formatted as a table. The no-code route is the Microsoft Excel app on Zapier: its New Row trigger fires whenever a row is added to that table, and you map the name, email, and course columns to a Wauld template once. Power Automate and custom triggers work the same way. Setup takes most teams under an hour, and there is no Excel add-in to install.

Do I need an Excel add-in or any extra software?

No. There is no Excel add-in to install and nothing to change inside your workbook. Wauld connects to the spreadsheet you already keep in OneDrive for Business or SharePoint through Zapier, Power Automate, or a custom trigger, so your worksheet stays exactly as it is and your existing formulas and formatting are untouched.

Can I issue credentials automatically when a new row is added?

Yes, and it is the most common setup. The Excel New Row trigger watches a table in your workbook, and each time a row is added it sends that data to Wauld, which issues the certificate or badge in seconds. If you configure it, an updated row can re-issue or revoke a credential, so the automation keeps your records in sync with the spreadsheet.

Can I bulk-issue certificates from an existing Excel spreadsheet?

Yes. Export your Excel spreadsheet to CSV and upload it once to issue thousands of certificates in a single pass, or point an automation at the workbook to keep issuing as new rows are added. Both routes read the same columns, so there is no manual data entry and no risk of sending the wrong template.

My data lives in several systems. Can I combine it first?

Use Power Query in Excel to pull data from multiple sources into one clean worksheet, then let Wauld issue from that single workbook. Consolidating first keeps your credential records consistent and your import free of duplicates, which matters most when you connect to multiple business-critical apps at once.

Which Wauld plan do I need, and what happens if I downgrade?

You can start on the Free plan, which covers up to 300 credentials, the 1,800+ template library, bulk issuance, and social sharing. Custom triggers, webhooks, and the Zapier connection are included on every plan, while API access sits on Enterprise. Once issued, credentials stay valid and accessible to recipients even if you cancel, though features exclusive to paid plans stop working when the plan expires.

Where can I learn more about the Excel connectors?

Microsoft Learn documents the Excel Online connector for Power Automate along with its worksheet and table actions, and Zapier's help center covers the Microsoft Excel triggers such as New Row. Your Wauld credential report then shows exactly which recipients were issued and when, so you can reconcile it against the source workbook at any time.
