How to Embed a Google Sheet Dashboard in monday.com
Learn how to embed a live Google Sheets dashboard directly in your monday.com board for real-time data visibility.
Dashboards are most useful when they’re visible where work happens. Instead of asking your team to bookmark a Google Sheet link or paste screenshots into updates, embed it directly into your monday.com board with Google Easy Embed Pro.
Why Embed Instead of Link?
Links get lost. Screenshots go stale. An embedded Google Sheet updates in real-time — everyone on the board sees the latest data without navigating away.
Common use cases:
- Project dashboards — budget tracking, milestone status, resource allocation
- Sales reports — pipeline metrics, revenue summaries, forecast sheets
- Operational data — inventory levels, support ticket metrics, capacity planning
Step-by-Step Setup
1. Add Google Easy Embed Pro to Your Board
Open your board, click + to add a view, and select Google Easy Embed Pro from the list.
2. Connect Your Google Account
Click Connect to Google and authorize the app. It only requests access to files you explicitly select — never your entire Drive.
3. Pick Your Sheet
Use the Google Drive file picker to find and select your dashboard spreadsheet. It embeds immediately.
4. Choose Your Display Settings
- Access Mode: Set to View if you want a read-only dashboard, or Edit if team members need to update cells
- Display Mode: Use Content Only for a clean dashboard view, or Toolbar if editors need formatting tools
Tips for Great Dashboard Embeds
- Name your sheet tabs clearly — the first visible tab is what loads by default
- Use View mode for shared boards — prevents accidental edits to your formulas
- Freeze header rows — keeps column labels visible when scrolling within the embed
- Create a dedicated dashboard tab — design a summary view specifically for embedding, separate from raw data sheets
