Click Embed. A menu will slide out of the right side of the page.

Click Generate. You'll see this near the middle of the pane under "Generate HTML code to embed this file."
6
Click Customize how this embedded workbook will appear to others. It's at the very bottom of the pane, under the text box full of code.
- You can click through to change what's displayed on your website. For example, you can choose to display only a certain range of cells in the Excel file, with or without grid lines.
7
Copy the code. When you're happy with the preview of your Excel sheet, you can copy the code that's in the code box near the bottom of the page.
- If you need to, you can get the JavaScript instead by clicking the "JavaScript" tab.
8
Paste this code in your website editor. If you're using a blog site like the free version of Wordpress, you should be able to paste the embed code directly into your HTML blog post. If you're creating a more in-depth file with a JavaScript page, you can paste the JavaScript in your page to add it to your website.^{[2]
