Excel.DocumentTaskChangeCollection class

Package:
excel

Note

This API is provided as a preview for developers and may change based on feedback that we receive. Do not use this API in a production environment.

Represents a collection of change records for a task.

Extends
OfficeExtension.ClientObject

Remarks

[ API set: ExcelApi BETA (PREVIEW ONLY) ]

Properties

context

The request context associated with the object. This connects the add-in's process to the Office host application's process.
items

Gets the loaded child items in this collection.

Methods

getCount()

Gets the number of change records in the collection for the task.
getItemAt(index)

Gets a task change record by using its index in the collection.
load(options)

Queues up a command to load the specified properties of the object. You must call context.sync() before reading the properties.
load(propertyNames)

Queues up a command to load the specified properties of the object. You must call context.sync() before reading the properties.
load(propertyNamesAndPaths)

Queues up a command to load the specified properties of the object. You must call context.sync() before reading the properties.
toJSON()

Overrides the JavaScript toJSON() method in order to provide more useful output when an API object is passed to JSON.stringify(). (JSON.stringify, in turn, calls the toJSON method of the object that's passed to it.) Whereas the original Excel.DocumentTaskChangeCollection object is an API object, the toJSON method returns a plain JavaScript object (typed as Excel.Interfaces.DocumentTaskChangeCollectionData) that contains an "items" array with shallow copies of any loaded properties from the collection's items.
