A practical guide to protecting sheets and workbooks in the Syncfusion React Spreadsheet component. Covers sheet protection via the isProtected property and protectSheet() API, granular permission control with protectSettings, unlocking specific cell ranges using lockCells(), read-only mode via setRangeReadOnly() and isReadOnly, and workbook-level protection to prevent structural changes like renaming or deleting sheets. Includes code examples for both declarative and programmatic approaches, plus UI-based workflows.
