Share links
Share on Quick Access (signed-in, saved sheet) creates a link. Anyone with the link gets a read-only view and a banner to Edit this worksheet — that copies it into their workspace.
Create a link
- Sign in and open a saved sheet.
- Choose Share on the Quick Access bar.
- Copy the link. It looks like
/s/…/.
The viewer sees the ribbon in a reduced form and cannot change your original. Edit this worksheet (on the banner under the ribbon) creates their own copy. They need an account to claim that copy.

Shared example calculations on /examples/ use the same idea. Opening an example is a share view; Edit this worksheet puts a copy in your Sheets list. See Open an example calculation. For comments and approve/request-changes, use teams and review instead of a public link. Recipients need an account to claim a copy.
