Hi, 

I installed this Excel add-in for draw.io but it doesn't work. It crashes every time.
Is there a way that I could convert draw.io flowcharts to Excel sheet flowcharts(Not image)

Thanks for your help!
Regards,

And just to confirm: you added performed steps here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/69908459/draw-io-flowchart-to-excel-objects-flowchart?

"I need to replicate 30 flowcharts from draw.io format to Excel specific objects format in Excel sheet. Is there a short cut way to do this? 
P.S.: The add-in named 'draw.io' for Excel crashes whenever I try to upload a draw.io file into Excel sheet.
Steps to reproduce the crash:
  1. Install Excel add in "draw.io" from microsoft store. https://appsource.microsoft.com/en-us/product/office/wa200000113?tab=overview
  2. After installation, open any Excel file and click on Insert tab. Click on Drawio icon and select a .io file
  3. Error occurs(screenshot) instead of conversion of diagrams from io to Excel aheet"

Thanks. Do you have the same issue in other browsers and Incognito mode, please?

This issue is related to Excel add-in(when I try to use drawio in Excel). So browsers are not involved anywhere here, except only for the first time when I downloaded the add-in from the Microsoft store.

We cannot repeat this. Copy the image from the editor into Excel instead.

Sorry I did not understand what you mean by "We cannot repeat this"

Following the steps described in the environment described we cannot repeat the error. So, the suggestion is to use the workaround of copying and pasting an image from the editor.
