{% hint style="info" %}
Notice that Excel can support up to 1,048,576 rows. If your table is too large to export, you can use [Filter](/acho-studio/data-prep-projects/applying-actions/view/filter.md) or [Cut](/acho-studio/data-prep-projects/applying-actions/view/cut.md) to shrink your table size.
{% endhint %}

3\. When the API is generated successfully, a green message will pop up from the top of the page. The Excel connector API will be copied to your clickboard automatically

4\. Open your Excel and navigate to **Data > From Web**. Then, paste the API that you just generated on Acho in the URL field and click **OK**.  (For mac user, prepare the link in an **iqy** file and use Data - Get External Data -  Run Web Query, [contact us](mailto:contact@acho.io) or [find us in Discord](https://discord.com/invite/WPUcn28VKW) if you find any problem)
