I have a Google Docs document which I share with other users through the Share through hyperlink feature.

On that document, on every heading level 1, 2... I use Format > Paragraph style > Title 1, 2... for creating pretty formatted titles and at the same time automatically building the TOC.

enter image description here

I'd like to generate an hyperlink which allows me to share the document but also that the user opening the document lands directly on one of the headings. Like a traditional web URL with #anchor.

Is it possible?

This is possible, when you click the header in the table of contents you'll see a string starting with heading appended to the URL like so:

example of header append to URL

Share out the URL with the #heading string at the end and when users open the doc it will open directly to that heading.

    Nice! Scroll position isn't very precise but it's working. Thank you! May 27, 2019 at 11:06
