Publish

Enable broad access to your sheet via a Publish link.

How it works

  • Open the Publish tab at the bottom of a sheet
  • There are 3 options for publishing a sheet:
    • Read Only HTML - simple, read only view of the sheet.  Attachments and discussions are not available and indented rows cannot be collapsed/expanded.  This option is best if you want a lightweight, quick-loading view of your sheet data.
    • Read Only Full - while still read only, this option has a richer user interface, enabling viewers to open row attachments and discussions and collapse/expand indented rows.
    • Edit by Anyone - enables anyone to open the sheet and make changes as if they were shared the sheet with Editor permissions.
  • After turning on the link, click in the URL field and use Ctrl+c keys to copy the link and Ctrl+v keys to paste the link in an email or webpage.  Or click in the Embed field and copy/paste the code into a webpage, blog, or other web application.
  • If you want to discontinue access to the sheet via the Publish links, click on the Publish tab and select the OFF radio button option.
