Michael, are you sure you [published](https://support.google.com/docs/answer/37579?hl=en) the Google Doc you are trying to onebox?

Google Doc needs to be published (_not shared_) for embedding. [More info here](https://support.google.com/docs/answer/143345).

In my testing the published Google Doc is getting embedded.
