The answer above from John Stephens is fantastic (please upvote it!), but it no longer worked for me in the more recent Excel:mac 2016, with an error that the code needs to be updated for use on 64-bit systems.

No claims for performance or scalability, but for a simple one-shot access to a web service from Excel for Mac 2011, this seems to do the trick and met the need for which I posted my original question. Obviously, using VBA, you could parse and reformat the JSON data and place it where needed in your worksheet. Change the value in A1 from London to Moscow - A4 will change to the JSON-formatted forecast for Moscow. Now, type a city name in cell A1, for example London, cell A4 will show you the JSON response containing the weather forecast for London. In cell A3 which will build the query string, enter: ="q=" & A1 Here's a specific example using a weather forecast web service ( )Ĭell A1 will be reserved for the name of the city. If you don't have a module, click Insert->Module. To use this, copy the code above, open the VBA editor in Excel for Mac 2011.

I've tested this on a Mac running Mac OS X 10.8.3 (Mountain Lion) with Excel for Mac 2011. Doing further research, I came across Robert Knight's comment on this question VBA Shell function in Office 2011 for Mac and built an HTTPGet function using his execShell function to call curl.
