Why Choose Spire.Agent.Office
Spire.Agent.Office is an AI agent built on top of the traditional Spire.Office for .NET document engine. The core differences are:
| Traditional Spire.Office for .NET | Spire.Agent.Office | |
|---|---|---|
| Operation | Manual coding (calling APIs, iterating document data, processing, saving results) | Natural language instructions (e.g., "Review this contract") |
| Low Learning Curve | Requires detailed API knowledge and object structure | Simply describe the requirements, AI executes automatically |
| Flexibility | API code may not suit all documents | Universal AI instructions handle all documents |
How It Works
Natural Language Instruction → Spire.Agent.Office AI Layer → Spire.Office Document Engine → Output File
Spire.Agent.Office parses your natural language instructions, converts them into internal calls to the Spire.Office document engine for processing, and ultimately generates the desired document. It supports processing and conversion of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, PDF, and other document formats.

AI-Powered Document Processing
Core Workflow
Document AI processing follows this pattern:
- Create a document object (Workbook / Document / PdfDocument / Presentation)
- Load a preset document (optional; can start with an empty document)
- Configure AIOptions (set SpireToken)
- Call
.AI(options)to obtain an AIDocumentProcessor - Execute AI instructions and monitor execution status:
- Processing existing documents: Call
AIDocumentProcessor.ExecuteInstruction(), returnsAIResult - Generating PPT documents: Call
AIDocumentProcessor.GeneratePresentation(), returnsGenerationResult
- Processing existing documents: Call

Frequently Asked Questions
SpireToken Key Not Configured Properly
If the SpireToken Key is not configured, is incorrect, or has expired, Spire.Agent.Office will throw an exception and the program will abort. Ensure the SpireToken Key is valid before proceeding.
AI Instruction Execution Failed
The AIResult returned by ExecuteInstruction may contain failure information. Check the Success property.
AIResult result = processor.ExecuteInstruction(doc, instruction, outputPath);
if (result == null || !result.Success)
{
throw new InvalidOperationException(
$"AI instruction failed: {result?.ErrorMessage ?? "Unknown error"}");
}
Incorrect Document Path
If processing an existing document, an incorrect file path will cause document loading to fail:
- Ensure the document path is correct
- For multi-document operations (e.g., document merging), additional documents can be defined in
attachmentPaths
Apply for SpireToken Key

Copy Excel Worksheets with JavaScript in React
Copying worksheets is one of the most common and efficient operations in everyday Excel document processing — whether you are quickly creating similar reports from a template or consolidating data across multiple documents. Spire.XLS for JavaScript handles this entirely in the browser via WebAssembly, using a virtual file system (VFS) to manage input and output files — no backend server required.
This article covers three core features:
- Copy a worksheet within the same workbook
- Copy a worksheet across workbooks
- Copy a selected cell range
For installation and project setup, refer to Integrating Spire.XLS for JavaScript in a React Project. The examples below assume Spire.XLS is installed and the WebAssembly module is initialized.
Copy a Worksheet Within the Same Workbook
Duplicating a worksheet within the same workbook is a frequent development task — for example, quickly creating next month's report copy from a monthly template. Spire.XLS for JavaScript provides the CopyFrom method to duplicate a worksheet. The copied sheet retains all content from the source worksheet, including data, styles, fonts, colors, borders, column widths, and row heights.
function App() {
const sheetToSVG = async () => {
// Get the Spire.XLS WASM module
const xlsModule = window.wasmModule?.spirexls;
// Check if the module is ready
if (!xlsModule) {
alert('Spire.Xls is not ready yet');
return;
}
// Load fonts and the Excel file into VFS
await window.spire.FetchFileToVFS('ARIAL.TTF', '/Library/Fonts/', `${process.env.PUBLIC_URL}/font/`);
const inputFileName = 'Sample.xlsx';
await window.spire.FetchFileToVFS(inputFileName, '', `${process.env.PUBLIC_URL}data/`);
// Load the workbook
const workbook = new xlsModule.Workbook();
workbook.LoadFromFile({ fileName: inputFileName });
// Get the first worksheet
let sheet = workbook.Worksheets.get(0);
// Add a new worksheet
let sheet1 = workbook.Worksheets.Add("MySheet");
// Copy the first worksheet into the newly added sheet
sheet1.CopyFrom(sheet);
const outputFileName = "CopySheetWithinWorkbook_output.xlsx";
workbook.SaveToFile({ fileName: outputFileName });
// Release the workbook object to free resources
workbook.Dispose();
// Read the converted file from VFS and trigger download
const fileArray = window.dotnetRuntime.Module.FS.readFile(outputFileName);
const blob = new Blob([fileArray], { type: "application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet" });
const url = URL.createObjectURL(blob);
const a = document.createElement('a');
a.href = url;
a.download = outputFileName;
a.click();
URL.revokeObjectURL(url);
};
return (
<div style={{ textAlign: 'center', height: '300px' }}>
<h1>Copy Worksheet Within Workbook</h1>
<button onClick={sheetToSVG}>
Start
</button>
</div>
);
}
export default App;
When using CopyFrom, data, styles, fonts, colors, borders, and column widths from the source worksheet are fully preserved in the new sheet.

Copy a Worksheet Across Workbooks
In real-world scenarios, data from multiple Excel files often needs to be consolidated into a single workbook — for example, extracting specific sheets from departmental reports and merging them into a master sheet. The AddCopy method lets you copy a worksheet from the source workbook into the target workbook with all its content intact.
function App() {
const sheetToSVG = async () => {
// Get the Spire.XLS WASM module
const xlsModule = window.wasmModule?.spirexls;
// Check if the module is ready
if (!xlsModule) {
alert('Spire.Xls is not ready yet');
return;
}
// Load fonts and the Excel files into VFS
await window.spire.FetchFileToVFS('arial.ttf', '/Library/Fonts/', `${process.env.PUBLIC_URL}/font/`);
const sourceFileName = 'ReadImages.xlsx';
const targetFileName = 'Sample.xlsx';
await window.spire.FetchFileToVFS(sourceFileName, '', `${process.env.PUBLIC_URL}data/`);
await window.spire.FetchFileToVFS(targetFileName, '', `${process.env.PUBLIC_URL}data/`);
// Load the source workbook
const sourceWorkbook = new xlsModule.Workbook();
sourceWorkbook.LoadFromFile({ fileName: sourceFileName });
// Get the first worksheet of the source workbook
const srcWorksheet = sourceWorkbook.Worksheets.get(0);
// Load the target workbook
const targetWorkbook = new xlsModule.Workbook();
targetWorkbook.LoadFromFile({ fileName: targetFileName });
// Add a new worksheet in the target workbook and copy the source sheet into it
targetWorkbook.Worksheets.AddCopy({ sheet: srcWorksheet });
// Save the target workbook
const outputFileName = "CopyAcrossWorkbooks_output.xlsx";
targetWorkbook.SaveToFile({ fileName: outputFileName });
// Release resources
sourceWorkbook.Dispose();
targetWorkbook.Dispose();
// Read the converted file from VFS and trigger download
const fileArray = window.dotnetRuntime.Module.FS.readFile(outputFileName);
const blob = new Blob([fileArray], { type: "application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet"});
const url = URL.createObjectURL(blob);
const a = document.createElement('a');
a.href = url;
a.download = outputFileName;
a.click();
URL.revokeObjectURL(url);
};
return (
<div style={{ textAlign: 'center', height: '300px' }}>
<h1>Copy Worksheet Across Workbooks</h1>
<button onClick={sheetToSVG}>
Start
</button>
</div>
);
}
export default App;
When copying across workbooks, all data and styles from the source worksheet are preserved — AddCopy copies the complete worksheet content into the target workbook.

Copy a Selected Cell Range
Sometimes you do not need to copy an entire worksheet — you only need to copy a specific cell range (such as a particular data table or summary result) to a target location. Spire.XLS for JavaScript provides the Copy method, which copies data, styles, and formatting from the source range to the starting position of the target range.
function App() {
const sheetToSVG = async () => {
// Get the Spire.XLS WASM module
const xlsModule = window.wasmModule?.spirexls;
// Check if the module is ready
if (!xlsModule) {
alert('Spire.Xls is not ready yet');
return;
}
// Load the source Excel file into VFS
await window.spire.FetchFileToVFS('ARIAL.TTF', '/Library/Fonts/', `${process.env.PUBLIC_URL}/font/`);
const inputFileName = 'Sample.xlsx';
await window.spire.FetchFileToVFS(inputFileName, '', `${process.env.PUBLIC_URL}data/`);
// Load the workbook
const workbook = new xlsModule.Workbook();
workbook.LoadFromFile({ fileName: inputFileName });
// Get the first row of the first worksheet as the source range
const sheet = workbook.Worksheets.get(0);
const sourceRange = sheet.Range.get("A1:E1");
// Add a new worksheet
let sheet1 = workbook.Worksheets.Add("AddSheet");
// Copy the source range to the starting position of the target worksheet
sheet.Copy(sourceRange, sheet1, sheet.FirstRow, sheet.FirstColumn, true);
// Save the workbook
const outputFileName = "CopyRange_output22.xlsx";
workbook.SaveToFile({ fileName: outputFileName });
// Release resources
workbook.Dispose();
// Read the converted file from VFS and trigger download
const fileArray = window.dotnetRuntime.Module.FS.readFile(outputFileName);
const blob = new Blob([fileArray], { type: "application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet" });
const url = URL.createObjectURL(blob);
const a = document.createElement('a');
a.href = url;
a.download = outputFileName;
a.click();
URL.revokeObjectURL(url);
};
return (
<div style={{ textAlign: 'center', height: '300px' }}>
<h1>Copy Range</h1>
<button onClick={sheetToSVG}>
Start
</button>
</div>
);
}
export default App;
The Copy method transfers data, styles, and formatting from the source range to the target range — ideal for lightweight scenarios where only partial data extraction is needed.

FAQ
Column width differs after copying
Cause: Font mismatch between the source and target workbooks.
Solution: Ensure all required font files are loaded into the VFS environment of the target workbook before copying across workbooks:
await window.spire.FetchFileToVFS(
'arial.ttf', '/Library/Fonts/', '/'
);
Range content is pasted at the wrong position
Cause: Incorrect destRow and destColumn parameters in the Copy method, causing data to be pasted at an unexpected location.
Solution: Confirm that the destination row and column indices start from 1 (not 0), and verify the row and column range of the target worksheet before copying.

Add, Remove, and Move Excel Worksheets with JavaScript in React
Managing worksheets — adding, removing, and reordering them — is one of the most fundamental and frequently used operations in Excel document processing. Spire.XLS for JavaScript handles these operations entirely in the browser via WebAssembly, using a virtual file system (VFS) to manage input and output files — no backend server required.
This article covers three core features:
For installation and project setup, refer to Integrating Spire.XLS for JavaScript in a React Project. The examples below assume Spire.XLS is installed and the WebAssembly module is initialized.
Add Worksheet
Adding new worksheets to a workbook is a common requirement in daily development. Spire.XLS for JavaScript provides the Add method to create a new worksheet and give it a name. After adding, you can write data to the new sheet's cells and save the workbook.
function App() {
const startProcessing = async () => {
// Get the Spire.XLS WASM module
const xlsModule = window.wasmModule?.spirexls;
if (!xlsModule) {
alert('Spire.Xls is not ready yet');
return;
}
// Load fonts and the Excel file into VFS
await window.spire.FetchFileToVFS('ARIAL.TTF', '/Library/Fonts/', `${process.env.PUBLIC_URL}/font/`);
const inputFileName = 'AddWorksheet.xlsx';
await window.spire.FetchFileToVFS(inputFileName, '', `${process.env.PUBLIC_URL}/data/`);
// Create a workbook instance and load the file
const workbook = new xlsModule.Workbook();
workbook.LoadFromFile({ fileName: inputFileName });
// Add a new worksheet named "NewSheet"
const sheet = workbook.Worksheets.Add("NewSheet");
sheet.Range.get("C5").Text = "This is an inserted sheet.";
// Auto-fit columns
sheet.AllocatedRange.AutoFitColumns();
// Save the workbook
const outputFileName = "AddWorksheet_output.xlsx";
workbook.SaveToFile({ fileName: outputFileName });
// Release resources
workbook.Dispose();
// Read the output file from VFS, wrap it as a Blob, and trigger download
const modifiedFileArray = window.dotnetRuntime.Module.FS.readFile(outputFileName);
const blob = new Blob([modifiedFileArray], { type: "application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet" });
const url = URL.createObjectURL(blob);
const a = document.createElement('a');
a.href = url;
a.download = outputFileName;
a.click();
URL.revokeObjectURL(url);
};
return (
<div style={{ textAlign: 'center', height: '300px' }}>
<h1>Add Worksheet</h1>
<button onClick={startProcessing}>
Start
</button>
</div>
);
}
export default App;
Adding a new worksheet after the existing ones via the Add method.

Remove Worksheet
When you need to clean up unwanted worksheets from a workbook, you can remove them directly by name. Spire.XLS for JavaScript's Remove method precisely locates and removes the target worksheet.
function App() {
const startProcessing = async () => {
// Get the Spire.XLS WASM module
const xlsModule = window.wasmModule?.spirexls;
if (!xlsModule) {
alert('Spire.Xls is not ready yet');
return;
}
// Load fonts and the Excel file into VFS
await window.spire.FetchFileToVFS('ARIAL.TTF', '/Library/Fonts/', `${process.env.PUBLIC_URL}/font/`);
const inputFileName = 'RemoveWorksheet.xlsx';
await window.spire.FetchFileToVFS(inputFileName, '', `${process.env.PUBLIC_URL}/data/`);
// Create a workbook instance and load the file
const workbook = new xlsModule.Workbook();
workbook.LoadFromFile({ fileName: inputFileName });
// Remove a worksheet by name
const sheet = workbook.Worksheets.get("Sheet2");
workbook.Worksheets.Remove(sheet);
// Remove by index
//workbook.Worksheets.RemoveAt(1);
// Save the workbook
const outputFileName = "RemoveWorksheet_output.xlsx";
workbook.SaveToFile({ fileName: outputFileName });
// Release resources
workbook.Dispose();
// Read the output file from VFS, wrap it as a Blob, and trigger download
const modifiedFileArray = window.dotnetRuntime.Module.FS.readFile(outputFileName);
const blob = new Blob([modifiedFileArray], { type: "application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet" });
const url = URL.createObjectURL(blob);
const a = document.createElement('a');
a.href = url;
a.download = outputFileName;
a.click();
URL.revokeObjectURL(url);
};
return (
<div style={{ textAlign: 'center', height: '300px' }}>
<h1>Remove Worksheet</h1>
<button onClick={startProcessing}>
Start
</button>
</div>
);
}
export default App;
Using Remove to delete a worksheet by name.

Move and Reorder Worksheets
Reordering worksheets is a common task when organizing an Excel document. With Spire.XLS for JavaScript's MoveWorksheet method, you can move a worksheet to a target index position, effectively reordering the sheets within the workbook.
function App() {
const startProcessing = async () => {
// Get the Spire.XLS WASM module
const xlsModule = window.wasmModule?.spirexls;
if (!xlsModule) {
alert('Spire.Xls is not ready yet');
return;
}
// Load fonts and the Excel file into VFS
await window.spire.FetchFileToVFS('ARIAL.TTF', '/Library/Fonts/', `${process.env.PUBLIC_URL}/font/`);
const inputFileName = 'Sample.xlsx';
await window.spire.FetchFileToVFS(inputFileName, '', `${process.env.PUBLIC_URL}/data/`);
// Create a workbook instance and load the file
const workbook = new xlsModule.Workbook();
workbook.LoadFromFile({ fileName: inputFileName });
// Get the first worksheet and move it to index 1
const sheet = workbook.Worksheets.get(0);
sheet.MoveWorksheet(1);
// Save the workbook
const outputFileName = "MoveWorksheet_output.xlsx";
workbook.SaveToFile({ fileName: outputFileName });
// Release resources
workbook.Dispose();
// Read the output file from VFS, wrap it as a Blob, and trigger download
const modifiedFileArray = window.dotnetRuntime.Module.FS.readFile(outputFileName);
const blob = new Blob([modifiedFileArray], { type: "application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet" });
const url = URL.createObjectURL(blob);
const a = document.createElement('a');
a.href = url;
a.download = outputFileName;
a.click();
URL.revokeObjectURL(url);
};
return (
<div style={{ textAlign: 'center', height: '300px' }}>
<h1>Move Worksheet</h1>
<button onClick={startProcessing}>
Start
</button>
</div>
);
}
export default App;
Moving the first worksheet to the second sheet position via the MoveWorksheet method.

FAQ
Index out of range when operating on worksheets
Cause: The index parameter is outside the range of the current worksheet collection in the workbook.
Solution: Verify the total number of worksheets before performing the operation, ensuring the index is within 0 to worksheets.Count-1. Use workbook.Worksheets.Count to get the current total:
const count = workbook.Worksheets.Count;
Worksheet not found when removing by name
Cause: The specified worksheet name does not exactly match the actual name in the workbook.
Solution: Iterate through the worksheet names to confirm before removal:
for (let i = 0; i < workbook.Worksheets.Count; i++) {
let name = workbook.Worksheets.get(i).Name;
console.log(name);
}
