Embed Google Drive

Embed a link and preview of Google Drive Documents by pasting a shared document link into the editor.

Supported Google Drive Embeds

This plugin supports auto-embedding various types of Google Drive content. Just paste a public or shareable URL directly into your editor.

Note: The trailing part of the URL (like /edit, /view, or /viewform) is optional. These are commonly included when users copy URLs directly from the browser, and the embed handler accepts them.
