TL;DR
  • Google Sheets now lets users publish Gemini-powered Canvas dashboards, calendars, and task boards through shareable links.
  • People can interact with a published Canvas without accessing or editing the original spreadsheet.
  • Users can control who sees the Canvas and choose whether it updates automatically when spreadsheet data changes.

Google Sheets is great for organizing information, but sharing it with others isn’t always convenient. Say you’re managing a project with multiple deadlines and tasks. You might have everything organized in a spreadsheet, but no one wants to scroll through dozens of rows just to see what’s happening next.

Google already has a feature called Canvas that uses Gemini to turn spreadsheet data into interactive dashboards, calendars, and task boards. Now, it’s making these creations easier to share by giving them their own links, without requiring access to the original spreadsheet.
