Read and update spreadsheet data, within the actions you allow.

**Can I make it read-only?**

Yes. Allow reading and leave writing off, action by action.

**Do I connect it for every Double?**

No. Connect it once at account level and every Double can use it, with its own permissions.

No. Your data and conversations are never used to train AI models.
