Abstract
A system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing at least one program and a method for integrating collaborative spreadsheet data into one or more network applications is presented. Spreadsheet data and an application data schema are accessed. The spreadsheet data corresponds to a spreadsheet having one or more validation rules. The application data schema comprises a set of constraints on application data consumed by an application hosted by an application server. A notification is displayed in response to determining that the one or more validation rules exclude at least one constraint from the set of constraints. The notification includes an indication that the application data is unable to be synchronized with the spreadsheet data and specifies one or more additional validation rules to associate with the spreadsheet to trigger synchronization of the application data with the spreadsheet data.
