Excel Formula Generator API
Turn plain-English spreadsheet requirements into Excel formulas through a stable authenticated API. Instead of hard-coding a large library of formula templates, your application can describe the calculation it needs and receive a structured result suitable for further validation or insertion into a workbook. Common uses include reporting automation, finance and operations tools, workbook builders, SaaS products, and AI agents that need Excel-compatible formula output. Column references and data-type context can be supplied when the requested calculation depends on a particular workbook structure.
Built for application workflows
Strigs is designed for backend services, automation platforms, AI agents, spreadsheet import pipelines, and internal tools that need formula intelligence without embedding a spreadsheet user interface. Requests use a stable JSON contract and authenticated API key, while responses expose the formula together with explanation, validation status, warnings, function metadata, and confidence so your application can decide how much automation is appropriate.
API example
curl -X POST https://api.strigsapi.com/v1/formula/generate \
-H "X-API-Key: $STRIGS_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"platform":"excel","instruction":"Sum cells A1 through A10"}'Responses include a formula, explanation, validation details, confidence, and compatibility warnings when applicable. Validation and confidence signals are intended to be inspected by the calling application rather than treated as a guarantee that every model-generated formula is semantically correct for every workbook.
Production integration guidance
Keep API credentials server-side, validate user-supplied spreadsheet context before forwarding it, and handle authentication, validation, quota, and temporary-service errors separately. For workflows that modify important workbooks, review low-confidence or warning-bearing results before applying them automatically. The public quickstart includes authenticated curl examples, response handling guidance, and links to the interactive API reference.
