Allowing anonymous access to Google Apps Script web app (Google Apps account)


I have a spreadsheet in my Google Drive that I would like to share through a web app. I want the script to run as me and allow everyone to access the web app.

When this is done in my personal Google account (non Google App account), I get "Anyone, even anonymous" option under "Who has access to the web app" section in the "Publish as a web app" dialog in the Apps Script editor. And everything works fine.

However when I try to do the same thing in my Google Apps account in my organization, I do not get "Anyone, even anonymous" option under "Who has access to the web app" section. Only options that are presented is "Only myself" & "Anyone within XXXXXXX.com"

Anybody have any idea why this is happening? Is there any security option that I can change in my Google Apps domain?

Thanks

  • Have you checked with your Google Apps Administrator? They might have enforced a policy that one can not share the docs outside the organization.

    Here is the documentation on docs sharing policy. https://support.google.com/a/answer/60781?hl=en
