Write Back

EmbedSheet doesn't just read data—it can write results back to your application. Close the loop on data workflows without copy-paste.

The Problem with One-Way Data

Most embedded data views are read-only. You can see your data, maybe sort or filter it, but any real work happens somewhere else. Calculations get done in Excel. Results get copied back by hand. Errors creep in.

Two-Way Data Flow

With EmbedSheet, users can:

1. Read data from the app
2. Compute with familiar formulas
3. Write results back to the app

All in one place. No export-calculate-import cycle. No copy-paste. No stale data.

Use Cases

• Calculate totals and write them to a summary field
• Apply a formula across a dataset and save the results
• Transform data and push it back to the source
• Build approval workflows where computed values update records

For Developers

You configure which cells can write back and where the data goes. EmbedSheet handles the user interface; your app receives clean, computed values through a simple API.
