How to Connect Spaces with Sites
Google Spaces can be shared with others in your organization very easily as a personal or domain-level. You can invite persons, teams and groups to newly created spaces and these sharing permissions are handled within the Google Workspace admin console. These discoverable Google Spaces can be linked to from your Google Site, providing for the dynamic and interactive feature sorely needed with Google Sites intranets.
Workspace Admin Set Up
If discoverable Google Spaces are allowed by your administrator, copy the link to that space and place in your Google Site intranet's navigation by the "Add URL" function of the Pages side-panel. Or, simply hyperlink to the Space in your page content.
While embedding and integrating Google Spaces directly into Google Sites is not yet supported this is a frequently requested feature in the developer community.
