Azure Functions for Office

Azure Functions For Office is a set of utility Azure Functions for working with Office documents and eventually Microsoft Graph.

This initial version consists of three functions for working with Excel and Word documents:

1. Excel Extract - reads rows and columns from an Excel file and returns easily consumed JSON
2. Excel Merge - Merges data in JSON format with an Excel document given as a URL or as a Base64 encoded string
3. Word Merge - Merges data in JSON format with an Word document given as a URL or as a Base64 encoded string

The function app contains a fourth utility timer function, Keep Warm, which executes every few minutes to keep the functions loaded in consumption plans as to avoid cold starts.
