Writing EXA #SAI Commands:

Start any command with #sai !EXASCRAPE or #sai !ASKEXA followed by your instruction. SheetXAI automatically converts them to proper formulas every 5 seconds when the chat panel is open.

Command Types:

  • !EXASCRAPE: Accepts URLs and single cell references (like #A) but NOT ranges (like #A-C)
  • !ASKEXA: Accepts questions and can use cell references with #

Cell References:

  • Single cell: #A1 (specific cell - can't be dragged down)
  • Current row: #A (current row in column A - best for dragging down)
  • Cell range: #A-D (from column A to D in current row)
  • Multiple columns: #A,B,C or #A-C,F

Tip: If you plan to drag your formula down to other rows, use column references like #A instead of specific cells like #A1.

How It Works:

  1. Write your EXA #SAI command in any cell using !EXASCRAPE or !ASKEXA
  2. Keep the SheetXAI chat panel open
  3. Your command automatically converts to a proper #SAI formula every 5 seconds
  4. The formula processes and returns web scraping or Q&A results

EXA Examples:

  • Web scraping with URLs: #sai !EXASCRAPE https://example.com/page1 https://example.com/page2
  • Web scraping with single cell reference: #sai !EXASCRAPE #A
  • Question answering: #sai !ASKEXA What is the latest valuation of SpaceX?
  • Research using cell data: #sai !ASKEXA research company #A and find their latest news
  • Multiple URLs: #sai !EXASCRAPE https://example.com/page1 https://example.com/page2 https://example.com/page3

Note: By default, #SAI and @SAI are the command formats that are added to your spreadsheet. However, you still have the option to use whichever format you prefer (like SAI, sai, #sai, etc.). If you want to use SAI (without the # prefix), you can add it by going to Formula Builder > SAI Call Format Settings.
