Excel

Connect Excel to Scrolls with Power Query — no Python, no formulas required.

Option A — OData feed

In Excel: Data → Get Data → From Other Sources → OData Feed, then enter:

http://localhost:8000/odata/

Navigator will list entity sets and functions, including:

ResourcePath
FRED catalog/odata/FredCatalog
FRED observations/odata/FredObservations
FRED wide series/odata/FredSeriesWide?series_ids=GDP,UNRATE

Option B — CSV From Web

Data → Get Data → From Web and paste a CSV URL:

http://localhost:8000/fred/catalog.csv
http://localhost:8000/fred/series.csv?series_ids=GDP,UNRATE&start_date=2020-01-01

The same pattern works for other sources: replace fred with edgar, bls, census, eurostat, imf, or bis.
