how to read multiple excel files in python code example

Example 1: how to read excel file with multiple sheets in python

xls = pd.ExcelFile('path_to_file.xls')
df1 = pd.read_excel(xls, 'Sheet1')
df2 = pd.read_excel(xls, 'Sheet2')

Example 2: read all excel using glob

import sys
import csv
import glob
import pandas as pd

# get data file names
path =r'C:\DRO\DCL_rawdata_files\excelfiles'
filenames = glob.glob(path + "/*.xlsx")

dfs = []

for df in dfs: 
    xl_file = pd.ExcelFile(filenames)
    df=xl_file.parse('Sheet1')
    dfs.concat(df, ignore_index=True)

Example 3: merge multiple excel files with multiple worksheets into a single dataframe

import glob

all_data = pd.DataFrame()
path = 'd:/projects/chassis/data/*.xlsx'
for f in glob.glob(path):
    df = pd.read_excel(f, sheet_name=None, ignore_index=True, skiprows=6, usecols=8)
    cdf = pd.concat(df.values())
    all_data = all_data.append(cdf,ignore_index=True)
print(all_data)
