Import Field Data from External Sources (Sync with Google Sheets, CSV, XLS)

Wishlist Calculator
1

Hello,

I would like to propose a new feature for the calculator widget that would significantly improve flexibility and usability.

  • It would be extremely useful to have the ability to import data for specific fields from external sources such as:

    • Google Sheets

    • CSV files

    • Excel files (.xls / .xlsx)

    Use case:

    In many real-world scenarios, field values (e.g., pricing tables, product lists, dynamic parameters) are frequently updated. Currently, these need to be manually entered and maintained inside the calculator, which is time-consuming and error-prone.

    Proposed functionality:

    • Allow linking a field to an external data source

    • Automatically fetch and update values from that source

    • Support basic mapping (e.g., columns → fields)

    • Optional auto-refresh or manual sync

    This would make the calculator much more powerful for dynamic and data-driven use cases.

    Thank you for considering this feature!
