How to Embed Google Sheets in Notion

​

Notion is a powerful all-in-one workspace that allows users to organize and collaborate on tasks, projects, and data. One of its versatile features is the ability to embed external content directly into your pages—including Google Sheets. By embedding a Google Sheet in Notion, you can display and interact with your spreadsheet data without leaving the Notion environment. In this article, we will explore how to embed Google Sheets in Notion using current features and best practices.

​

Step 1: Open Google Sheets

​

Ensure you have a Google Sheets document ready to embed in Notion. If you need to create one, open Google Sheets and start a new document or open an existing one.

​

Step 2: Share Your Google Sheets Document

​

To embed your Google Sheets document, you first need to adjust its sharing settings. Click the Share button in the top-right corner of your Google Sheets document.

​

Step 3: Set Sharing Permissions

​

In the sharing settings, choose who can view, edit, or comment on the document. To embed Google Sheets in Notion, make sure that Anyone with the link has at least Can view access. This ensures Notion can access and display your sheet content.

​

Step 4: Copy the Google Sheets URL

​

Next, copy the URL of the Google Sheets document you wish to embed. Double-check that the URL is correct and that your sharing settings are set appropriately.

​

Step 5: Open Notion and Choose Your Page

​

Launch Notion and navigate to the page where you want the Google Sheets document to appear. Click the + icon to add a new block to your page.

​

Step 6: Add an Embed Block

​

From the block options, select the Embed block type. This action creates a new block where you can paste the URL of your Google Sheets. Alternatively, you can type “/embed” directly and select the Embed option from the slash command menu.

​

Step 7: Paste the Google Sheets URL

​

Paste the URL of your Google Sheets document into the embed block in Notion. Notion will automatically generate a live preview of your sheet. If the embed does not display correctly, confirm that the sharing settings on the sheet are set to allow public access (view-only is sufficient).

​

Step 8: Adjust the Embed Block Size

​

By default, the embed block appears with a standard size. Click on the block and use the resize handles to adjust it to your preferred dimensions. This step ensures your embedded sheet fits well within your Notion page layout. You can also use the slash command “/resize” to adjust the block if needed.

​

Step 9: Interact with the Embedded Google Sheets

​

Once embedded, you can interact with your Google Sheets document right within Notion. Scroll through the sheet, select cells, and even edit data if permissions allow. Any changes made in Google Sheets will reflect in real time within Notion.

​

Conclusion

​

Embedding Google Sheets in Notion enhances your productivity by centralizing your spreadsheet data within your workspace. With these simple steps, you can efficiently integrate and interact with your Google Sheets content without switching between apps. Start embedding your spreadsheets today to streamline your workflow and improve collaboration across your projects.
