What’s changing
Earlier this year, we announced
voice messages in Google Chat, giving users a new way to communicate with others more effectively. Today, we are introducing video messages in Chat, a new capability that helps you save time, convey more information, add tone or emphasis, and can be useful in a number of scenarios, such as:
Sales or customer support team members sending video updates about new features or account changes. Executives sharing company-wide announcements or strategic updates, fostering transparency and engagement across the organization. Team members sending a video with outstanding updates in lieu of attending a live meeting.

Why it’s important
This update offers users with more flexibility in how they communicate within Chat.
Additional details
Video message cannot be recorded on the following browsers and OS: ChromeOS, Linux and Firefox.
Getting started
Admins: This feature will be ON by default and can be disabled at the domain or OU level by disabling all attachments. Visit the Help Center to learn more about
controlling file sharing in Chat. For purposes of
Google Vault,
Google Takeout, and
Security Investigation Tool (SIT) moderation tools, voice messages are treated as attachments (like any other message in Chat). End users: To record a video message, select the record button in the Chat compose box and click “video message.” Then simply record your message and press send.You can preview or re-record your video before sending your video message. You can send video messages in 1:1 DMs, group DMs, and spaces, and they can be interacted with (quoted, reacted to, replied to in thread, etc) just like any other Chat message. Video messages will be stored in the Media section of the
Shared tab. You can send video messages on web and receive them on all platforms. The ability to record and send video messages on mobile is not available at this time. Visit the Help Center to learn more about
sending a video message in Google Chat and

What’s changing
Admins now have the option to configure meeting recordings, meeting transcripts, and “take notes for me”* as on by default for newly created meetings. Meeting hosts and co-hosts can edit these settings in the Calendar invite, as well as turn these artifacts off during the meeting. We hope these settings help ensure artifacts are created for specific meetings or series of meetings, like sales calls or town hall meetings, without relying on manual intervention. When these meeting artifacts are turned on, attendees will be notified when they join the green room and when they join the meeting.

What’s changing
Last year, we introduced the ability to pull rich data from apps directly into Google Docs with third-party smart chips. Since then, many users have embedded content from partner apps, including
Asana,
Jira & Confluence,
Canva,
Lucid,
Loom,
Whimsical, and
Zoho Projects, and now we’re expanding the capability to Google Sheets.
Starting today, users can add
smart chips that pull information from third party apps into Sheets. Users can also paste third-party chips inserted in Docs directly into a spreadsheet.
To access
third-party smart chips, an admin or user must first install a partner’s add-on from the
Google Workspace Marketplace. After that, simply paste a link from the third-party source into your spreadsheet and click “tab”. You will then see a smart chip populate in your sheet that previews critical information from the app, right in the flow of your work.
Getting started
Admins: You can only create and use a third-party smart chip if a developer has enabled it for that application. You will also need to install or allowlist the specific add-on for that application to ensure end users have access. Visit the Help Center to learn
how to install Marketplace apps in your domain and
managing Google Workspace Marketplace apps. Developers: Visit the Help Center to learn more about
how to make third-party smart chips. End users: Specific add-ons for third-party applications must be installed by your admin or allowlisted for you to use this feature. Visit the Help Center to learn more about
inserting third-party smart chips from other applications. To convert a link to a third-party into a smart chip, you can either: Paste a link from the third-party source into your spreadsheet and select “tab” Replace the link with a chip within the hover card that appears when you place your cursor over the link. Users who have installed a third-party add-on will see a hovercard of information defined by the third-party upon hovering over the chip:
