Overview
The Upscaling tab in SheetXAI settings configures the AI model used for image upscaling and enhancement within SAI formulas in your spreadsheet. This allows you to enhance image quality and resolution directly from your spreadsheet by processing image URLs.
Choose your preferred image upscaling provider from available options to enable high-quality image enhancement capabilities.
Note: By default, #SAI and @SAI are the command formats added to your spreadsheet. You can still use whichever format you prefer (e.g. SAI, sai, #sai). To use SAI without the # prefix, add it via Formula Builder > SAI Call Format Settings.
Writing Image Upscaling Commands
Start any command with #sai !UPSCALING followed by only the image URL, and use # to reference cells containing image URLs. To run upscaling across all rows at once, add !ARRAY after #SAI (e.g. #sai !ARRAY !UPSCALING #A). SheetXAI automatically converts them to proper formulas every 5 seconds when the chat panel is open.
Important: No Prompts Required
- Use only the
!UPSCALINGprefix followed by the image URL - Do not add descriptive text, prompts, or instructions
- The system automatically processes the image for quality enhancement
- Simple format:
!UPSCALING+ image URL = enhanced image
Cell References
- Single cell:
#A1(specific cell; cannot be dragged down) - Current row:
#A(current row in column A; best for dragging down or!ARRAYbulk runs) - Cell range:
#A-D(columns A to D in current row) - Multiple columns:
#A,B,Cor#A-C,F
Tip: If you plan to drag your formula down to other rows, use column references like #A instead of specific cells like #A1. For multi-row runs, add !ARRAY after #SAI to run automatically across all rows (e.g. #sai !ARRAY !UPSCALING #A).
How It Works
- Put image URLs in your spreadsheet cells
- Write your
#SAIupscaling command in any cell using!UPSCALING - Keep the SheetXAI chat panel open
- Your command automatically converts to a proper
#SAIformula every 5 seconds - The formula processes and generates an enhanced, higher-resolution image
- Download the enhanced image file from your spreadsheet cell
Examples
Direct image URL:
#sai !UPSCALING https://example.com/image.jpg
Using cell references:
#sai !UPSCALING #A
#sai !UPSCALING #B2
Batch processing multiple images:
- Option 1 – Drag down: Put
#sai !UPSCALING #Ain a cell and drag the formula down to process each row. - Option 2 – Run on all rows with !ARRAY (recommended): Use
!ARRAYonce and SheetXAI runs upscaling for every row automatically:
#sai !ARRAY !UPSCALING #A
What You Get
- Resolution enhancement (2x, 4x, or higher scaling)
- Quality improvement and noise reduction
- Detail preservation and sharpening
- Artifact removal and clarity enhancement
- Professional-grade upscaling results
- Support for various image formats (JPG, PNG, WebP)
- Batch processing capabilities
- Consistent quality enhancement across all images
Notes
- Commands are case insensitive (
#sai,#SAI,#Saiall work) - When using batch processing,
!ARRAYmust come first:#sai !ARRAY !UPSCALING #A(not#sai !UPSCALING !ARRAY #A) - Always use the
!UPSCALINGprefix for image enhancement - Each formula processes one image and returns one enhanced version
- Maintains original image proportions while improving quality
- Only works when the SheetXAI chat panel is open
- Formulas become static when the app is open
- Customize patterns and reference styles in Formula Builder > SAI Call Format Settings
How to Configure
- Navigate to the Settings section in the SheetXAI sidebar
- Select the Upscaling tab
- Choose your preferred image upscaling provider
- Save your selection
