How to retrieve the URL link
In your Google document, click on Share in the upper right corner of the screen.

Embedding Google documents with restricted access
Viewing Google documents with organization or restricted access requires an authorized Google account and consequently, the ability to log into such account.
However, Google’s support to external authentication is currently limited.
If a user tries to view a restricted document through an embedder app and they’re NOT logged into any Google account, Google’s login screen won’t show up and instead a generic error will be displayed.
To fix this:
open a separate tab and access any Google product
log into your Google account
go back to Jira/Confluence or monday.com and refresh the page
Once you are logged in, it will also apply to other Google Workspace embedders you use.
Aggressive cookie-blocking systems (like the default options in Brave browser) will prevent the embedder app to keep your authentication. Disable them in order to correctly log into your Google account. Deleting cookies will cancel your authentication.
In Google Sheets and Google Docs, click on File > Share > Publish to web.
If not published, set your desired publishing settings and click on Publish.
Copy the displayed URL in the Link tab.
Are you embedding a restricted Google document in monday.com desktop app and Google doesn’t let you login (cookie error)?
Temporarily disable the restriction OR copy the link of any unrestricted Google file.
It has to be compatible with the embedder you’re using.
Example: Google Sheets Embedder 👉 use a Google Sheets unrestricted linkEmbed the link or refresh the page if you’re not changing link
Click on Access and log into your Google account
Go back to the page where you embedded the document
You can now enable the restriction again or swap back to the file you originally intended to embed. You don’t need to repeat these steps for other files or Google embedders!
Google does not support uploading files in external applications.
Trying to embed a Google Form that contains a “File upload” question will result in a “docs.google.com refused to connect” error.
In Google Forms, click on Send in the upper right corner of the screen.
Click the link button, then Copy.
