Embed a Google Document, Spreadsheet, Presentation or Form in a site, and as changes are made to the original, the site will reflect the changes:
- Click the Edit page icon, which looks like a pencil icon, to open the page editor
- Place the cursor where you'd like to insert the object
- From the Insert menu, select the object you'd like to insert
- Share the Google Doc, Sheet, or Slide with the same audience you share your site with
How Embedded Items Appear to Site Visitors
- So long as the inserted object is shared view-only with the same audience as your site, it will be view-only to site visitors
- Those with edit or owner access to your site will see a link under each embedded object that will allow them to open the item in a separate window, where, if they have edit access, for example, they can edit the item
