使用C＃和ASP.NET MVC在OneDrive上读取Excel（xlsx）文件

Question

I have a OneDrive shared link for an excel file with some data. And I need to read this excel file through my C# ASP.NET MVC web application without downloading it to local PC. But I'm new to this 'OneDrive API'. So I have a serious challenge with this. I'm familiar with local file read as in,

EX:

var package = new ExcelPackage(new System.IO.FileInfo(PATH));

I'd really appreciate if anyone can guide me or provide a sample code to do this. I just need to access the ExcelPackage of the .xlsx file. Thank you in advance.

PS : I have tried some options like 'WebRequest', 'Webclient', etc. :(

You could try something like HttpClient.GetStreamAsync to open a download stream for the remote file and then pass the returned Stream to the ExcelPackage constructor (documentation states it has a constructor that accepts an instance of a Stream ).

Hope it helps!
