Welcome to the forum @Dwienov.

It is not clear exactly what you want to do, I think maybe the translation has not been perfect. If you are a beginner with node-red then I suggest you start by watching the [node red essentials](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ksGeUD26Mw0) videos.

Then start at the beginning with your problem, it seems you need to read an excel file so have a look at the [node red flows](https://flows.nodered.org) site and search for excel. That may get you started.

Yes, why do you think it might not be?

Feed the data you are getting out of the spreadsheet into a debug node and show us what you get.
