Get the desired worksheet using Workbook.getWorksheets().get(sheetIndex) method.
Insert an image into the worksheet using Worksheet.getPictures().add() method.
Save the result file using Workbook.saveToFile() method.

Java

import com.spire.xls.ExcelVersion;
import com.spire.xls.Workbook;
import com.spire.xls.Worksheet;

public class InsertImageFromDisk {
    public static void main(String[] args){
        //Initialize a Workbook instance
        Workbook workbook = new Workbook();
        //Get the first sheet
        Worksheet sheet = workbook.getWorksheets().get(0);

        //Insert an image into the worksheet
        sheet.getPictures().add(1, 1,"E:\\work\\sample.jpg");

        //Save the result file
        workbook.saveToFile("InsertImageFromDisk.xlsx", ExcelVersion.Version2016);
    }
}

Initialize a URL instance to get the image from the specified URL. Within the constructor of URL class, pass the image’s URL as a parameter.
Read the image into a BufferedImage object using ImageIO.read() method.
Insert the image into the worksheet using Worksheet.getPictures().add() method.
Save the result file using Workbook.saveToFile() method.

Java

import com.spire.xls.ExcelVersion;
import com.spire.xls.Workbook;
import com.spire.xls.Worksheet;

import javax.imageio.ImageIO;
import java.awt.image.BufferedImage;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.net.URL;

public class InsertWebImage {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
        //Initialize a Workbook instance
        Workbook workbook = new Workbook();

        //Get the first worksheet
        Worksheet sheet = workbook.getWorksheets().get(0);

        //Initialize a URL instance to get the image from the specified URL
        URL url = new URL("https://cdn.e-iceblue.com/downloads/demo/Logo.png");
        //Read the image into a BufferedImage object 
        BufferedImage bufferedImage = ImageIO.read(url);

        //Insert the image into the worksheet
        sheet.getPictures().add(3, 2, bufferedImage );

        //Save the result file
        workbook.saveToFile("InsertWebImage.xlsx", ExcelVersion.Version2016);
