Default: Report

Path and name of the Excel report file, for example D:\MyFile.xlsx. The file extension must be *.xlsx.

template
Path and name of the report template you created in Excel. The file extension must be *.xlsx, for example, D:\MyTemplate.xlsx. Use the template to display data in other chart types.

error in
Error conditions that occur before this node runs.
The node responds to this input according to standard error behavior.
Standard Error Behavior
Many nodes provide an error in input and an error out output so that the node can respond to and communicate errors that occur while code is running. The value of error in specifies whether an error occurred before the node runs. Most nodes respond to values of error in in a standard, predictable way.
error in does not contain an error | error in contains an error |
---|---|
If no error occurred before the node runs, the node begins execution normally.
If no error occurs while the node runs, it returns no error. If an error does occur while the node runs, it returns that error information as error out. | If an error occurred before the node runs, the node does not execute. Instead, it returns the error in value as error out. |
Default: No error

Reference to the Excel report.

error out
