  3. In the Published content and settings section, select or deselect the Restrict access to the following checkbox depending on your preference:

    • If selected, you can restrict access to the document, so that only a particular group within your organisation’s Google Drive can see it, including when viewing it Fuse as an external link. This means if a Fuse user does not have access to it in Google Drive, they will be unable to see the document in Fuse.

    • If deselected, the document is publicly available to anyone in possession of the link outside of your organisation’s Google Drive. This means even users in Fuse communities without access to your organisation’s Google Drive can view the document in its entirety. Making the document publicly available may increase security risks, so it is highly recommended you consult and abide by your organisation’s data protection policies.

  4. Select the Automatically republish when changes are made checkbox, so the live view of the file remains updated in Fuse.
