# 2. Explanation of Excel data configuration parameters (Use input Excel)

When you check Use input Excel, the system will display the following detailed parameters to manage how to read/write data:

* 📂 Excel file: Click the `Browse...` button to select the input data file from your computer. The system supports common file formats such as `.xlsx`, `.xls`, or `.csv`.
* 📄 Sheet Id: Select the index of the sheet in the Excel file that you want the tool to read data from. This index starts counting from `0` (corresponding to the first sheet on the left in your Excel file).
* 🔄 Map mode (Row reading mode): This section determines how browser profiles will retrieve data from Excel:
  * Each profile reads all rows: Each browser profile when launched will read and run through all the data rows present in the Excel file sequentially.
  * Each profile reads one row: Each browser profile will only take one single data row to process (suitable when each row contains information for a separate account).
* 🆔 Map according to the profile name in column A: If this box is checked, the tool will automatically match: The name of the running GPM Login profile corresponds to the text in which row in Column A of the Excel file, and it will jump directly to that row to retrieve data.
* ✅ Write 'OK' status to the Excel file upon completion: Automatically write 'OK' to the Excel file after the script has finished running. This feature helps you easily track which row, which account has been successfully processed by the tool.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.gpmautomate.com/automate-en/general-introduction/guide-setup-configuration-to-run-script/2-excel-data-configuration-parameters-explanation.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
