Sharing settings
To be able to collect feedback from your users you'll have to set the proper permissions on your files
You can either click on the Share button right in Google Docs or you can right-click on your documents in Google Drive to access the sharing settings.
Click on Advanced
in this dialog for accessing the advanced sharing options.
Adjust the settings according to your preferences. The given example shows public sharing allowing even anonymous users to comment and add suggestions to the document.
If you have a public help site and want to allow anonymous users to add suggestions, you'll have to create your documents with a plain Google Account.
G Suite accounts will not allow you to do that!
