Google Sheets lets users publish Gemini Canvas dashboards via shareable links
Google Sheets now allows users to publish Canvas creations—AI-generated dashboards, calendars, and task boards built with Gemini—as standalone shareable links. Viewers can interact with the published Canvas without ever gaining access to the underlying spreadsheet. Publishers can set separate viewing permissions and decide whether the shared version updates live with spreadsheet changes or stays frozen.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
This could make Sheets more useful for event organizers, project managers, or teams who want to share readable summaries without exposing raw data or editing rights. Separating viewer permissions from spreadsheet access may also reduce accidental data exposure in collaborative settings. The feature reflects Google's broader push to embed Gemini AI across Workspace tools to make raw data more presentable and shareable.
- Canvas dashboards can now be published as standalone shareable links separate from the spreadsheet.
- Viewers can interact with the Canvas without editing or accessing the original data.
- Publishers control audience access and can choose static or live-updating versions.
