How to Save a New Sheet in an Existing Excel File, Using Pandas

How to save a new sheet in an existing excel file, using Pandas?

Thank you. I believe that a complete example could be good for anyone else who have the same issue:

import pandas as pd
import numpy as np

path = r"C:\Users\fedel\Desktop\excelData\PhD_data.xlsx"

x1 = np.random.randn(100, 2)
df1 = pd.DataFrame(x1)

x2 = np.random.randn(100, 2)
df2 = pd.DataFrame(x2)

writer = pd.ExcelWriter(path, engine = 'xlsxwriter')
df1.to_excel(writer, sheet_name = 'x1')
df2.to_excel(writer, sheet_name = 'x2')
writer.close()

Here I generate an excel file, from my understanding it does not really matter whether it is generated via the "xslxwriter" or the "openpyxl" engine.

When I want to write without loosing the original data then

import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
from openpyxl import load_workbook

path = r"C:\Users\fedel\Desktop\excelData\PhD_data.xlsx"

book = load_workbook(path)
writer = pd.ExcelWriter(path, engine = 'openpyxl')
writer.book = book

x3 = np.random.randn(100, 2)
df3 = pd.DataFrame(x3)

x4 = np.random.randn(100, 2)
df4 = pd.DataFrame(x4)

df3.to_excel(writer, sheet_name = 'x3')
df4.to_excel(writer, sheet_name = 'x4')
writer.close()

this code do the job!

How to write to an existing excel file without overwriting data (using pandas)?

Pandas docs says it uses openpyxl for xlsx files. Quick look through the code in ExcelWriter gives a clue that something like this might work out:

import pandas
from openpyxl import load_workbook

book = load_workbook('Masterfile.xlsx')
writer = pandas.ExcelWriter('Masterfile.xlsx', engine='openpyxl')
writer.book = book

## ExcelWriter for some reason uses writer.sheets to access the sheet.
## If you leave it empty it will not know that sheet Main is already there
## and will create a new sheet.

writer.sheets = dict((ws.title, ws) for ws in book.worksheets)

data_filtered.to_excel(writer, "Main", cols=['Diff1', 'Diff2'])

writer.save()

Append existing excel sheet with new dataframe using python pandas

UPDATE [2022-01-08]: starting from version 1.4.0 Pandas will support appending to existing Excel sheet "out of the box"!

Good job Pandas Team!

According to the DocString in pandas-dev github, ExcelWriter will support parameter if_sheet_exists='overlay'

if_sheet_exists : {'error', 'new', 'replace', 'overlay'}, default 'error'
How to behave when trying to write to a sheet that already
exists (append mode only).
* error: raise a ValueError.
* new: Create a new sheet, with a name determined by the engine.
* replace: Delete the contents of the sheet before writing to it.
* overlay: Write contents to the existing sheet without removing the old
contents.
.. versionadded:: 1.3.0
.. versionchanged:: 1.4.0
Added ``overlay`` option

For Pandas versions < 1.4.0 please find below a helper function for appending a Pandas DataFrame to an existing Excel file.

If an Excel file doesn't exist then it will be created.



UPDATE [2021-09-12]: fixed for Pandas 1.3.0+

save data to new worksheet, in existing workbook using python

You need to create pandas excel writer and then save on different sheets like this:

df1.to_excel(writer, sheet_name='Sheet1')
df2.to_excel(writer, sheet_name='Sheet2')

How can we write new data to existing Excel spreadsheet?

Please notes that Testing Append Process.xlsx file has to be created before running this code.

from openpyxl import load_workbook
import pandas as pd

data = {'Name': ['Tom', 'Joseph', 'Krish', 'John'], 'Age': [20, 21, 19, 18]}
df = pd.DataFrame(data)

filename = "Testing Append Process.xlsx"
workbook = load_workbook(filename)
writer = pd.ExcelWriter(filename, engine='openpyxl')
writer.book = workbook
writer.sheets = {ws.title: ws for ws in workbook.worksheets}

df.to_excel(writer, startrow=writer.sheets['Sheet1'].max_row, index = False, header= False)

writer.close()

Returns the following if you will run the code twice.

Pandas create a new sheet instead of adding the data in the active one

The to_excel has incorrect sheet name. The S should be in CAPS. Change the line from
data_no_control.to_excel(writer, "sheet", startrow=2, startcol=3,
to
data_no_control.to_excel(writer, "Sheet", startrow=2, startcol=3,

As there is already a sheet in the excel, it is writing the data to Sheet2

EDIT
Noticed that you are using writer.sheets. If you want to use want the program pick up the first sheet from excel automatically, you can use this as well...

data_no_control.to_excel(writer, sheet_name=list(writer.sheets.keys())[0], startrow=2, startcol=3,

This will pick up the first sheet (in your case the only sheet) as the worksheet to update

Overwrite an excel sheet with pandas dataframe without affecting other sheets

I didn't find any other option other than this, this would be a quick solution for you.

I believe still there's no direct way to do this, correct me if I'm wrong. That's the reason we need to play with these logical ways.

import pandas as pd

def write_excel(filename,sheetname,dataframe):
with pd.ExcelWriter(filename, engine='openpyxl', mode='a') as writer:
workBook = writer.book
try:
workBook.remove(workBook[sheetname])
except:
print("Worksheet does not exist")
finally:
dataframe.to_excel(writer, sheet_name=sheetname,index=False)
writer.save()

df = pd.DataFrame({'Col1':[1,2,3,4,5,6], 'col2':['foo','bar','foobar','barfoo','foofoo','barbar']})

write_excel('PRODUCT.xlsx','PRODUCTS',df)

Let me know if you found this helpful, or ignore it if you need any other better solution.
