How can I add a shortcut for a Google doc to my home screen?

[Android Central Question]

Everything I'm reading says to open the doc and click the 3 dots, but I don't have the option "Add to Home Screen"/

I've done this through Drive, is the document stored there? Long-press the item in your Drive app and select to add it to your homescreen.

Welcome to Android Central! You can also create a Drive widget shortcut. Long-press an empty part of your homescreen, tap Widgets, then drag the Drive Shortcut to the homescreen. It will then prompt you to select a file or folder.
