Hi, we have SQL Server 2016 with MDS 2016 running. For Windows clients that connect with Excel, we simply have them install the Master Data Services Add-In, and then they get the Master Data tab and everything works great. However, I cannot, for the life of me, find any information on getting Excel for the Mac, or any Mac software, connecting to MDS. Can you please help me figure out how to make this work, or if it is even possible? Thank you.

    Hi,

    I checked the system requirements in the download page of Master Data Services Add-in for Microsoft Excel, there is no support for platforms other than windows(server).
