Right.  And that is because you are not using the correct method.  As
I already said, use the Import feature and import using the same URL
that you said works in the other method.  Then designated those users

(already knew about it) the fact that the file is non-editable...",
you said.  Or are you saying that you did not write that?

That is not entirely correct.  Follow the instructions that I provided.
