Third-party smart chips now available in Google Sheets

Was sich ändert 

Letztes Jahr, 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 und Confluence, Canva, Lucid, Loom, Whimsicalund Zoho-Projekte, and now we’re expanding the capability to Google Sheets. 
Starting today, users can add intelligente Chips that pull information from third party apps into Sheets. Users can also paste third-party chips inserted in Docs directly into a spreadsheet. 
Für den Zugang Smart Chips von Drittanbieternmuss ein Administrator oder Benutzer zunächst das Add-on eines Partners aus dem Google Workspace-Marktplatz. 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. 

Erste Schritte 

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.

Improve Google Meet livestreaming experience with more insight on eCDN performance

Was sich ändert 

In July 2024, we introduced Enterprise Content Delivery Network (eCDN) support for Google Meet, which helps reduce live streaming bandwidth consumption to a fraction of the traffic volume. Today, we are announcing enhancements that will give admins greater insight to better optimize their eCDN configuration. 
eCDN is deployed according to settings and rules configured by admins to control and optimize peering across their network topology. Beginning today, admins can turn on client debug logs in the Admin console to get detailed information and better understand how configurations affect the way clients use eCDN in different parts of their private network. This information includes:
Device status: information about the client’s current state.Network: information about the network assigned to the client (potentially through a custom rule configuration).Stats: performance information about how the client has used the eCDN such as transfer rates and peer connections.

Wer ist davon betroffen?

Admins

Warum Sie es verwenden sollten

Understanding how peering rules affect the way clients use eCDN is vital for achieving bandwidth savings targets. Access to detailed information lets administrators deploy eCDN faster across their subnets while all the time being able to monitor that their rules have the intended effect. Additionally, in cases where support is needed, the information contained in the debug logs helps with troubleshooting to resolve issues faster.

Available in open beta: Easily migrate files from Microsoft OneDrive to Google Drive

Was sich ändert

Under the umbrella of our data migration services, we’re introducing a new file migration service for Admins to transfer files between OneDrive data to Google Drive for up to 100 users at a time. Available directly under the Admin console, super admins can now migrate all your files and folders, as well as their corresponding access permissions with shared members. Starting a migration entails a few simple steps:

First, connect to the Microsoft OneDrive account you want to transfer files fromNext, set the migration scope by identifying the email addresses of Microsoft OneDrive users that you wish to migrate.Finally, create an identity map to connect users on the source account to users on the target account.

Admin console > Data > Data import & export > Data migration > Go to data migration > Microsoft OneDrive
The console will provide reporting on the migration progression and metrics such as how many users have been processed, how many files have been migrated or skipped, and more. You’ll also have the option to export a migration report to further investigate errors and access troubleshooting tips directly from the tool. You can also make delta updates to migrate any new files that were added or updated after a previous migration.

Warum Sie es verwenden sollten 

Data migrations play a critical role in ensuring a seamless transition between various tools and Google Workspace for both admins and end users. Workspace now offers a first party solution that allows our customers to migrate their data at scale, and without the need for third-party workarounds or on-premises infrastructure. This will significantly reduce the overall migration process and onboarding time to Google Workspace, saving customers considerable administrative and infrastructural costs. Additionally, it ensures minimal interruption for end users, who will be able to access all of their files and documents within Google Drive.

Erste Schritte

Admins: This feature is available in open beta – no additional sign-up is required to use the feature. This migration can only be performed by super admins. Visit the Help Center to learn more about migrating files from a OneDrive account.End users: There is no end user action required.
