What’s changing
Starting May 30, 2024, the Calendar API will distinguish events created from Gmail. New and existing events from Gmail that are scheduled for a future date will:
Appear with a new event Type “fromGmail” instead of “default”.Include the email recipient as the organizer instead of “unknownorganizer@calendar.google.com”.New “fromGmail” filters for both Events.list and Events.watch will be available.
In Google Calendar clients events from email may be rendered slightly differently to regular events and show a link back to the original email:
Google Calendar limits edits for events from email:
Additional details
If you’re using the Calendar API, we recommend the following to help avoid any disruptions in your applications:
Ensure that your code does not apply restricted updates to events with the type “fromGmail”.Temporarily, updates on events with the type “fromGmail” are restricted to the
properties reminders, colorId, visibility, status, and extendedProperties. Stay tuned to the Workspace updates blog for more information.Review your code if it filters by eventType for Events.list or Events.watch. Filtering by eventType “default” will no longer return events extracted from emails.

What’s changing
You can currently filter, sort, and display your Google Meet hardware devices by whether they are online, offline, or experiencing an application load-failure. Today, we’re expanding these parameters to include whether the Calendar and Jamboard services are turned OFF.
The connection between your Meet hardware devices and these two Google products are critical for connecting and collaborating. Allowing admins to filter for devices that match this criteria will help them identify potential gaps in hardware devices and product configurations, which they can quickly rectify.
For example, if Calendar is turned off on a Google Meet hardware device, it will no longer show the upcoming meeting list when booked for a meeting. Having the Jamboard* service turned off means that the Desk 27 and Board 65 devices will no longer be able to launch Jamboard directly on the device. These services may have been previously turned off in error, and this new capability allows admins to correct it, making the services available again to their users. Note that Jamboard 55-inch devices are not impacted.
You can filter your devices by going to Menu > Devices > Google Meet hardware > Devices > “Device status” and then select the criteria to filter by.

Available to all Google Workspace customers with Google Meet hardware devices

*Jamboard will no longer be on these devices starting October 1, 2024. Learn more about whiteboarding in Workspace here.

What’s changing
Currently users can edit their documents in Google Docs or edit speaker notes in Google Slides by using their voice. Users can also turn on automatic captions to display the speakers’ words in real time while presenting in Slides. These features have previously been available using the latest version of Google Chrome only.
Starting today, we’re expanding support for voice typing and captions features to additional browsers, such as Edge and Safari. When a user turns on voice typing or captions, the web browser controls the speech-to-text service, determines how speech is processed, and then sends text data to Google Docs and Google Slides.
Who’s impacted
End users
Why it’s important
This launch leads to more inclusive and accessible user interactions within Docs and Slides for more users.
Additional details
These features are available only on desktop.
Getting started
Admins: Admins can control which web browsers are supported in their domain. Certain browsers may offer browser level controls for disabling the Web Speech API. End users: When enabling this feature for the first time, you may see the following notice:
