Excel File to Azure Synapse Integration
AI-first ETL from Excel File into Azure Synapse. Governed entities, incremental sync, typed landing tables.
How Datrise loads Excel File into Azure Synapse
Datrise syncs Excel File's worksheets, rows, columns, headers, cell ranges, and workbooks into Azure Synapse as a typed table per source entity. Flexible or custom fields land in NVARCHAR(MAX) JSON columns, and timestamps such as created, updated, and status changes are typed as datetime2.
Sync is incremental: Datrise uses COPY into staging, then a MERGE on stable id, so re-runs update only what changed. Hash distribution on the join id with date partitioning on facts. Synapse dedicated pools reward good hash-distribution choices, so Datrise distributes on entity ids to avoid data-movement-heavy joins.
Ideal for Azure analytics estates feeding Power BI.
Endpoints
Excel File: Spreadsheet workbooks from exports and shared drives.
Azure Synapse: Microsoft analytics workspace with SQL pools.
How Excel File entities map to Azure Synapse
| Excel File entity | Azure Synapse object | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| worksheets | excel_file_worksheets | id PK · custom fields → NVARCHAR(MAX) JSON columns |
| rows | excel_file_rows | id PK · linked to excel_file_worksheets |
| columns | excel_file_columns | id PK · linked to excel_file_worksheets |
| headers | excel_file_headers | id PK · linked to excel_file_worksheets |
FAQ
How does Datrise handle Excel File's custom fields in Azure Synapse?
Flexible values are stored as NVARCHAR(MAX) JSON columns, so new fields don't require a migration; strongly-typed fields — dates, numbers, and references — are promoted to native Azure Synapse types.
How does the Excel File to Azure Synapse sync stay up to date?
It runs incrementally — Datrise uses COPY into staging, then a MERGE on stable id.
