# Importing from Google Docs

> Import Google Docs as PDFs, choose document tabs, and bring source edits into Adclear as new versions.

Paste a Google Docs link to import your document as a PDF promotion. You can choose individual document tabs or combine several tabs for review.

<Note>
  Google Docs uses the same connection and availability rules as [Google Drive](/marketing/importing-from-google-drive). Public **anyone with the link** documents need no Google sign-in. Private and shared documents require account connection where it is available.
</Note>

## Import a document

<Steps>
  <Step title="Start a promotion">
    Open **Promotions** and start a new promotion that accepts PDF documents.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Paste the document link">
    Select **Google Drive** and paste the Google Docs share link. If your upload interface detects sources automatically, you can paste directly into its main field instead.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose the content">
    Click **Import**. If the document has tabs, choose which tabs to import. Adclear converts the selected content to PDF.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Finish and submit">
    Complete the promotion details and click **Create Promotion**. Select **Submit for Review** when ready.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Warning>
  If account connection is unavailable, do not make a private document public unless your organisation permits it. Download a PDF and upload it instead.
</Warning>

## Choose document tabs

For a document with multiple tabs, Adclear shows tab cards with previews. Select the content you want to review.

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="One tab">
    Select one tab and click **Import this tab**. The selected tab becomes one promotion.
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Combined document">
    Select two or more tabs and click **Import as single**. Adclear combines the selected tabs into one PDF promotion.
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Variants">
    Select two or more tabs and choose the button labelled **Import as** followed by the number of **variants**. Each tab becomes a separate promotion in a linked group, with its own approval decision.
  </Tab>
</Tabs>

Use **Select all** to select every tab. When Adclear lists multiple tabs, the first tab is selected initially. Check the selected tab before importing, even if your share link points to another tab.

## Bring later edits into Adclear

Edit the document in Google Docs, then open the imported promotion and use its source pill. Choose **Check Google Docs for updates** and confirm the new version when changes are found.

Adclear copies the current content into a new version, carries over the promotion settings, and runs evaluation again. An unchanged source does not create a version.

<Note>
  Adclear does not write comments or review changes back to Google Docs. Your imported PDF is a copy of the document at import time.
</Note>

If the source pill shows **Needs your account**, confirm the document using your own Google account. See [Google Drive source updates](/marketing/importing-from-google-drive#updating-a-promotion-from-google-drive) for sync states and access requirements.
