STEP 1
Connect Excel and LDAP
Save credentials in WEXTL once. We store them encrypted and reuse the authorization across every workflow [3]. No coding or API skills required.
Excel and LDAP Integration
Combine the built-in Excel node with LDAP on the WEXTL® visual workflow builder. Drop Excel anywhere in your LDAP automation to run its logic between steps — the two live side by side on the same canvas, so you build the whole flow visually without a single line of code.

How does the integration between Excel and LDAP work in WEXTL?
WEXTL exposes actions and triggers for Excel and LDAP that help you connect apps and automate repetitive tasks [1]. A trigger is an event that happens, an action — a step that performs when the event has occurred.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions about connecting Excel and LDAP.
Connect your Excel and LDAP accounts once, pick an action in one app and an action in the other, then map the fields so data flows automatically between them. [3]
Example: use Excel's "Aggregate to Excel" action to perform LDAP's "Add an entry" action. Excel has 3 actions (including Aggregate to Excel, Create Excel, and Parse Excel); LDAP has 6 actions (including Add an entry, Compare an attribute, and Delete an entry). Add filters and transforms between steps when you need them. [1]
Yes — pick an action in either app, then an action in the other, and map the fields between them. [2]
No. Excel-to-LDAP automations are built visually on the canvas. You can optionally add custom JavaScript with Functions when you need advanced logic. [4]
Yes. Trigger-based automations start the moment Excel (or LDAP) fires a new event — webhook-backed apps run within seconds, and polling-only apps re-check on a schedule you control. [7]
A first automation typically takes 5–10 minutes: connect each app's credential once, drop a trigger + action onto the canvas, map the fields, and turn the workflow on.
You can build your Excel + LDAP automation on a 3-day trial with every feature unlocked. Cancel anytime. For your protection, a small deposit is charged to your card when your trial starts. It counts toward your first payment and is non-refundable. [8]
