This node reads an Excel file and provides the contained sheet names at its output port.
The performance of the reader node is limited (due to the underlying library of the Apache POI project). Reading large files takes a very long time and uses a lot of memory (especially files in xlsx format).

This node can access a variety of different file systems. More information about file handling in KNIME can be found in the official File Handling Guide.
