Right-clicking in “Inline Table Editing” macro to paste data is limited by browsers for security reasons. Without these measures, various websites could use scripts to steal the data from users’ clipboards. Some companies, like Google, allow you to paste data between their applications, but this is only a workaround and not a solution. If you want to copy data from another page, web application (like Google Sheets) or MS Excel, use a keyboard shortcut instead.
