Studio Excel file

The sheets and columns of the Excel file that holds a Studio project, for reading it, editing it in Excel and uploading it again.


A Studio project is one Excel file. Studio reads it when you upload it, and writes it when you choose Download under Project actions.

Most changes are easier in Studio itself. If you do edit the file, keep a copy first: undo cannot go back past an upload.

Sheets

Sheet Holds
Configuration The project’s settings. Change them in Studio
products One row for each product in the project
scenario … One sheet for each fixture: where every product sits

Leave any other sheet as it is.

The products sheet
