Collaborate in Teams meetings with Excel Live

With Excel Live you can share and collaborate with Excel workbook in a meeting on Desktop, Mac and Mobile. Web support is coming soon.

Excel Live is perfect for getting work done in a meeting with your colleagues, and is enabled by default. The feature seamlessly turns the meeting window canvas to an Excel workbook collaboration without moving between windows and screens. Participants can collaborate, contribute, review and finalize an Excel workbook in real time.

To use Excel Live:

While in a meeting, open Share tray and scroll down to Excel Live section.

Select the Excel workbook from your recently used files that you want to share in meeting. If you are not able to find the Excel workbook, you can use ‘Browse OneDrive’ or ‘Browse my computer.’

Once the workbook is selected, the share permission dialog will appear. Click Share to provide access to people invited to the meeting.

The file will be loaded for all participants in Teams meeting window and ready for editing.
