    Hi Gerard,

    It is currently NOT possible but this is a very nice idea. I’ll discuss it with the team.

    Theres an old script here: https://www.scriptopedia.org/en/js-indesign/126-csvtotable-en.html

    But it might not work with newer versions of Adobe InDesign so you need to test it.

    Hi Gerard

    We added it to our possible feature list – this means it has a good chance to be integrated, but it will not happen quickly. We appreciate your patience.

    If you subscribe to this topic i’ll let you know once there is a progress.

    Update: Since Adobe CC it’s possible to place Spreadsheets from Excel directly into InDesign: https://redokun.com/blog/link-indesign-tables-to-excel-spreadsheets
