Quandl Google Sheets & Excel Spreadsheet Add-on

Quandl is a premier source for open, commercial, and alternative data, with a particular focus on investment professionals. This Quandl spreadsheet integration for Google Sheets and Microsoft Excel enables you to import table and time-series datasets from Quandl. This add-on will enable you to integrate on-demand, refreshable stock market and portfolio data without leaving your spreadsheet.

For example, with this Excel and Google Sheets add-on you can:

• Extract financial time-series data directly in Excel and Google Sheets, filtering by both columns and date.
• Import tables, such as the Sharadar Fundamentals, and filter based on what is relevant and available for that given data set (e.g., columns, date, ticker, investor, etc.).

Here are some examples:

=FLEX("YOUR_TEAM_NAME/quandl-series", "NASDAQOMX/XNDXT25", "trade date, low, high", "2019-09-01", "2019-09-30")

=FLEX("YOUR_TEAM_NAME/quandl-table", "SHARADAR/SF3", "*", "ticker=AAPL,MSFT&investorname=VANGUARD GROUP INC")
