Excel.SlicerItemCollection class

Represents a collection of all the slicer item objects in the slicer.

Extends

Remarks

[ API set: ExcelApi 1.10 ]

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()

Returns the number of slicer items in the slicer.

getItem(key)

Gets a slicer item object using its key or name.

getItemAt(index)

Gets a slicer item based on its position in the collection.

getItemOrNullObject(key)

Gets a slicer item using its key or name. If the slicer item doesn't exist, then this method returns an object with its isNullObject property set to true. For further information, see *OrNullObject methods and properties.

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 is passed to it.) Whereas the original Excel.SlicerItemCollection object is an API object, the toJSON method returns a plain JavaScript object (typed as Excel.Interfaces.SlicerItemCollectionData) that contains an "items" array with shallow copies of any loaded properties from the collection's items.
