While the Excel add-in strives to provide access to all data accessible to Theta Data customers, there are naturally some limitations. You cannot access beyond 1M rows in an Excel document, and as such, the plugin will limit the amount of data returned. All the parameters specified by the REST API are not provided by the Excel plugin. Finally, real-time streaming cannot be used with the Excel plugin, but real-time snapshot data is available.
