You can add a Google Doc to a Room in two easy ways: directly from the link or via your Content Library (best if you’ll reuse it).
Option 1: Add directly from a link (fastest)
Open the Room.
Click Add section (pick a section type, e.g., Links & Examples).
Click Add content → From link.
Paste your Google Doc URL and confirm.
(Optional) Rename the item and add a short description.
When to use: You only need the doc in one or a few Rooms.
Option 2: Add via the Content Library (best for reuse)
Go to Library in the left sidebar.
Click Upload, choose Link, and paste your Google Doc URL.
Give it a clear title and thumbnail (optional), then Save.
Open any Room → Add section → From Library → select your saved item.
Why this is great: You manage the Google Doc link once in the Library and reuse it in many Rooms.
Google sharing settings (important)
To ensure viewers can open the doc inside the Room:
In Google Docs, click Share → set to Anyone with the link: Viewer,
or grant access to the specific emails you’ll invite to the Room.If the doc isn’t shared properly, viewers may see a Google permission prompt.
Tips
Preview: After adding, open the item in the Room to confirm it loads.
Versioning: If you update the content inside the Google Doc, the Room always shows the latest version (it’s the same doc link).
Reuse: For assets you’ll use often, prefer the Library route to avoid pasting links repeatedly.
Troubleshooting
“Request access” screen: Update the Google Doc’s Share settings.
Doc won’t load: Double-check the URL is a Docs link (not a Drive folder), and that there’s no organization SSO blocker for external viewers.
Need it in many Rooms now? Save to Library once, then insert it everywhere from there.
