Adding your Google Sheet to CopyDoc ​

CopyDoc needs permission to read the spreadsheet. In Google Sheets, select Share and change Restricted to Anyone with the link before copying the URL.

In CopyDoc, open Content Library → Integrations, choose Google Sheets, then paste the public URL. CopyDoc loads the sheet content automatically.
