info6471Q: CSV and Excel compatibility
Hi there,
1. Can I upload a CSV to the platform and produce charts instantly?
2. And Excel too?
3. I have a spreadsheet which is password protected, so every time i need to access the excel sheet I have to manually enter the password to get in. And I cannot get rid or turn-off the password gateway unfortunately. What happens if I upload this doc into the platform, will it still work and produce charts?
Thank you

Thanks for checking out InstaCharts for your use case!
1. Yes, you can upload a csv to InstaCharts and instantly get a chart back.
2. InstaCharts does not read password protected files at this time. If you export your password protected excel file to a non password protected file (like csv or regular excel), it should work.
Let me know if you have any more questions!
