3. Excel, enable localhost connection
Excel uses the Microsoft Edge browser for web services. So if you want to retrieve data in Excel you have to give the command that allows Edge to connect through the localhost.
In technical terms you have to add a local loopback exemption to the Microsoft Edge Web Viewer.
For more information see Microsoft documentation "localhost", Add-ins and Edge.
To enable the localhost connection:
- In the search box enter cmd.
- On the right side select Run as administrator.
- Confirm with Yes.
- Copy (CTRL+C) and paste (CTRL+V) the following command:
CheckNetIsolation LoopbackExempt -a -n="microsoft.win32webviewhost_cw5n1h2txyewy"
- Press enter to run the command.
- Close the command prompt.
Remove LoopbackExempt
To see if loopback is active use the command:
- CheckNetIsolation LoopbackExempt -s
If you no longer want to use the add-in, you can remove the setting with the following command:
- CheckNetIsolation LoopbackExempt -d -n="microsoft.win32webviewhost_cw5n1h2txyewy"
