Hi, No, you can't use the data source component to access those. Either you've to use data services or use Apache POI (or Google Spreadhsheet API, if you're talking about those) to access those. DSS just have our own data service config implementation to support it as a data source for a data service. You can check the Excel/GSpreadQuery|Config classes in data services core component. Those are thin wrappers on top of their respective external APIs. Using DSS specific classes will make DSS components a direct dependency, so you may want to do your own implementation based on that code, and even make it a generic component, so others may also use it and we can also migrate to that code later.
