Earlier this year we introduced Sheets canvas, which uses Gemini to turn spreadsheet data into interactive mini-apps like dashboards, kanban boards, and calendars. Starting today, you can publish a Sheets canvas directly to its own link, granting others read-only access to interact with the mini-app without sharing the full source spreadsheet. The published link is separate from the spreadsheet URL and has its own audience setting, so you can publish a canvas to your whole organization even if the file itself is shared with a smaller group.For example:An events coordinator can publish a conference agenda as a filterable schedule for hundreds of attendees while only the planning team edits the source sheet.A program manager can publish a launch timeline from the team's tracker, giving stakeholders across the company a live view of milestones without edit access to the spreadsheet.A learning and development lead can publish a course calendar so anyone in the company can see upcoming sessions, while the training team manages the data source.You can only publish a Sheets canvas that you have edit access to. To publish, click the icon in the canvas toolbar, then click the “Publish canvas” option. A user can also choose between automatically republishing the canvas whenever changes are made to the source sheet or publishing a static view based on the current state of the data. From the same icon, you can copy the link, change the audience, or stop publishing at any time. Publishing is currently available in Sheets on the web.Publishing a Sheets canvas from the icon in the canvas toolbar, then opening the published link from an account without access to the spreadsheetGetting startedAdmins: There is no new admin control for this feature. Canvas publishing uses the existing Publish to the web capability, so the Drive sharing setting that allows users to publish files on the web applies. Visit the Help Center to learn more about managing external sharing for your organization.End users: This feature is available by default. In a spreadsheet with a canvas tab, click the icon in the canvas toolbar, then select the “Publish canvas” option.
