# Does it has any password protection options?

Some time I share my sheet link to our company chatroom to save time , but due to that every one can read my sheet, Does google have any password protection option so I can tell them to use the password before sending to them?

No password protection.  However, unless you share, it is in your Google Drive, which is password access only.

Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides documents may not have an option for individual password protection, but they are still protected on Google's servers. Unless you've shared them, other users can't see your files without your Google Account username and password

No, as far as I know! But there are several ways to share documents. You can easily share via link and say that whoever has the link can view (or edit, or comment) or you can directly invite them via google drive (using their account or any email) so that only they can access.

You have the option to share with people or keep private. Can also do view only or editing access.
