Sheets overview
Sheets is the workspace spreadsheet: a fast collaborative grid with a formula engine that
speaks the same language as Google Sheets and Excel. Type =SUM(A1:A10) and it does exactly
what you expect — with your teammates editing beside you in real time.

The Sheets screen
Section titled “The Sheets screen”- Workbook list on the left — every sheet you can see, plus New sheet. The list collapses to a slim rail when you want the grid to have the whole screen.
- The grid — rows, columns, and a formula bar above showing the true contents of the selected cell.
- Presence avatars in the header show who else is in the workbook right now.
The basics
Section titled “The basics”- Click New sheet — you get a fresh grid.
- Click a cell and type: text, numbers, or a formula starting with
=. - Share it from the Share dialog when others should see or edit it.
Everything syncs live — a teammate’s edits appear in your grid within a blink, and new sheets are private to you until you share them.
Learn the pieces

Formula muscle memory carries over
Section titled “Formula muscle memory carries over”The function catalog follows the Google Sheets function list — VLOOKUP, SUMIF, INDEX,
MATCH, TEXTJOIN, and 270+ more are implemented, across math, text, date, logical, lookup,
statistical, and financial categories. Formulas from spreadsheets you’ve used before generally
paste straight in. See Formulas & functions.
Not there yet
Section titled “Not there yet”Sheets is deliberately focused on data and formulas first. Not yet available:
- Cell formatting (colors, borders, number formats) and merged cells.
- Multiple tabs per workbook.
- Comments, sort/filter views, and export to XLSX/CSV.
When a function exists in the catalog but isn’t implemented yet, a cell using it shows an
honest #UNSUPPORTED! with an explanation on hover — never a silently wrong number.
