Can i update a cell remotely from internet

Post by UsamaSala7 »

Hello
I need away to edit a cell from internet
So I can make the user update my file by pressing alink
Now, i'm using an URL from Google drive
And make a new version for the same link i already writed in my sheet.
So when the user press the link see the new version
But i need a more easy way to make him update the sheet
I wanna put an image in acell with an URL
And when i update this URL with anew image
The cell updated automatically
Can i do that?
Or is there any idea for doing what i want?

Welcome to the Forums.
To my knowledge this is not possible with OpenOffice or LibreOffice Calc.
If it is possible, I suspect you would need to use an online spreadsheet program, like the one in Google Docs.
OpenOffice 4.1.7, LibreOffice 7.0.1.2 on Windows 7 Pro, Ultimate & Windows 10 Home (2004)

I've been searching myself for a solution for multiple people collaborating on a spreadsheet in the cloud, and I have found two implementations of LibreOffice Online: Collabora Office (https://www.collaboraoffice.com/collabora-online/), which is a full collaboration product (including multiple users editing the same online document simultaneously), and the LibreOffice Editor web browser extensions for Chrome & Firefox (https://www.offidocs.com/index.php/prod ... extensions), which I believe only allow single-user-at-a-time editing.
