Is extraction from Excel still in preview?

We have a need to extract data from Native Excel documents to run through Form Recognizer 3.0 custom models. However, I noticed that extracting excel is still calling the preview API. Is this not part of the larger GA release? We are hesitant to put solutions using this into production if it is not GA. If it is not GA yet, is there an anticipated timeline for release?

2023-04-24T18:05:26.3266667+00:00 Yes, that is correct. I see that the vast amount of that API version is in GA now, but that portion still says use the preview. I need to know if it actually is in the GA release or what the expected GA release will be if not.

2023-05-01T22:55:04.36+00:00 Hi @Wood, Aaron , thank you for confirming.
Excel files will be in the GA API that has planned for July 2023: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/applied-ai-services/form-recognizer/concept-read?view=form-recog-3.0.0
I hope this helps.
Regards,
Vasavi
