Embedding Google Sheets or Google Docs Files in iObeya

iObeya’s "webcontent" tool displays external content using a URL. To properly display a Google Sheets or Google Docs file, you need to use the correct URL, which can be customized to improve the display. 

 

How do I display a Google Sheets or Google Docs file? 

Simply copy the file’s URL and paste it into the URL field of iObeya’s external content tool. 

Examples: 

• Google Sheets: 
  https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/yourGoogleSheetID/edit?gid=0#gid=0 

• Google Docs: 
  https://docs.google.com/document/d/yourGoogleDocID/edit 

 

Can I customize the display? 

Yes, you can add a parameter to remove unnecessary elements (like menu bars) for a cleaner display. 

Customized examples: 

• Google Sheets: 
  https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/yourGoogleSheetID/edit?rm=minimal&gid=0#gid=0 

• Google Docs: 
  https://docs.google.com/document/d/yourGoogleDocID/edit?rm=minimal 

 

How do I use this URL in iObeya? 

Simply paste the URL (customized or not) into the URL field of iObeya’s "webcontent" tool to display the file on your board.
