Create new sheets

TRY IT OUT

If you know you are going to collaborate on a sheet before you start work on the sheet, you can create it from scratch in Google Sheets. Once you have created a new sheet, you can add content and name the sheet as required.

Create a sheet 

To create a new sheet in Google Drive:

  • Ensure you are signed into Google Drive

  • Click on the New button on the left-hand side of the screen 

  • Choose Google Sheets

To create a new sheet from within an open sheet:

  • Click on the File menu

  • Choose New

  • Choose Spreadsheet

The new sheet will open in a new tab or browser window, depending on your browser.

Name a sheet

Once you've created your sheet, and before you start adding data, it’s good practice to set a name for the file, so that it isn’t saved as "Untitled" or the text you enter into the first cell of the spreadsheet.
