2 — Browse associated data

Scroll through the menu of available fields and select one to have Wolfram|Alpha automatically insert the associated data into your spreadsheet. Wolfram|Alpha has thousands of expertly curated data types encompassing the sciences, art, culture and more.

3 — Automatically get data

Once a cell is Wolfram|Alpha enabled, you can use Excel formulas to retrieve Wolfram|Alpha-generated content.

4 — Browse more information

Clicking on a Wolfram|Alpha-enhanced cell reveals a card with information relevant to that cell, so you don’t need to go outside of Excel to accomplish your project.
