It depends on language. For example in java you can use Apache POI API.

Hmm... I would make a GET request to the Excel file, and hopefully there should be some library or frameork to read the data.

There are libraries that can help with this. I saw one for Python a while back. I haven't used any before so can't recommend anything​ over anything else. What are you trying to achieve? If you have a large Excel file that you want to extract a specific data set out of, then you could save as CSV file, then it's easy to code that can scan through a CSV file in almost any language. If you need to automate doing something to many Excel files​ then you should find a suitable library for the language you want to use. (It is possible to do it all manually, but would be very hard.)
