Digital Product as File vs Digital Product as Link

Digital Product as File

If your product exists as a file, like a .xls file, then select "digital product as file" and attach the associated file.

Digital Product as Link

If your product exists as a link, like a Google Sheets link, then select "digital product as link" and paste the URL.

If linking to a Google Sheet, please be sure that the Google Sheet cannot be edited by the user and they can only make a copy.

In fact, you can provide a URL in such a way that the user has to make a copy. Here is how to do that.
