Download documents created from Google Drive
While it’s not possible to download a linked document directly, you can export it to an appropriate format and download it using the snapshot feature.
For example, if you have a linked Google Sheets file you want to download to your computer, you can create a snapshot of the file in .xls format, then download the new snapshot file.
To create and download a snapshot of a third-party cloud document:
-
Ensure you have the Owner role or equivalent privileges.
-
Select the file you want to create a snapshot of.
-
From the file’s menu, select More Actions (
) | Create Snapshot.
-
Select the Entity and enter a File Name for the snapshot file.
-
Select Save.
-
Go to the Files page and select the new snapshot file.
-
From the file’s menu, select More Actions (
) | Download.
A copy of the cloud document is downloaded to your computer.
