What’s changing
Currently, a teacher or school administrator can invite a
guardian, typically a parent, to receive email summaries about their student’s work in class. These email summaries include a rundown of missing work, upcoming work and class activities, such as recently posted announcements or assignments in Google Classroom.
Going forward, guardian email summaries will now include links that let guardians preview their student’s Classwork pages, including assigned work and attachments provided by the teacher. With this update, guardians can stay up-to-date with what their students are learning. Guardians will not be able to see their student’s grades or submissions, class communication, or other students’ work. Guardians can easily access this page directly from the Classroom email summaries or from the link shared by teachers.
Who’s impacted
Admins and end users
Why it matters
This feature keeps guardians informed about their student’s assignments in class.
Additional details
Teachers with the Google Workspace Education Plus edition who already send guardian email summaries will notice those emails automatically start including guardian previewing links. No action is needed to get started.
Getting started
Admins: Admins can turn Guardian Access ON or OFF for their domain and determine whether only admins, or admins and verified teachers, can control guardians accounts and per-class access. If admins choose the latter,
verified teachers are able to add or remove guardian accounts for students in their class and determine whether each class will be available for guardian access. Visit the Help Center to learn more about
managing guardians in your domain. End users: In classes where you have
guardian summaries turned ON, guardians can now preview your classwork page and any classwork assigned to their student(s). You can turn this setting OFF at any time in your
Class Settings page.Guardians: You have guardian preview capabilities to your student’s Classwork page through direct links in the email summary. Visit the Help Cenet to learn more about
guardian email summaries.

What’s changing
Currently, when there are security policies applied to documents, spreadsheets, presentations or files, users are given no central explanation of which actions, like downloading, making a copy, or external sharing are restricted.
To improve upon this experience, users who are interacting with policy-protected content, such as those with
data loss prevention (DLP) rules or
trust rules, will now be proactively informed about what actions are prevented by those policies.
For example, if a user is interacting with a document affected by DLP-enforced information rights management (IRM) and a Trust Rule, they will see a shield icon, banner, and side panel that informs them of the restricted actions.
Who’s impacted
End users
Why it matters
With this update, users will be made aware of which actions they are taking that are disabled on a document, spreadsheet, slide or file due to data protection controls.
Getting started
Admins: There is no admin control for this feature. End users: Any user will be able to see policy visualization if it’s active on a document, but the owner of the document is used to determine if it’s turned ON. A shield icon, banner, and side panel will automatically appear when security controls are present. Visit the Help Center to learn more about the policies that enable Policy Visualization:

What’s changing
We’re updating the way Google Meet hardware devices are re-enrolled to provide a more intuitive experience for administrators.
Previously, if a device was re-enrolled without first being deprovisioned, the Admin console would reuse its existing record and device ID — this is changing:
Starting July 17, 2024, if you re-enroll a device without first deprovisioning it, the Admin console will create a completely new record with a new device ID. The old record will still be there, and you’ll need to deprovision it to free up its license. Settings from the old record won’t automatically carry over to the new one.
Getting started
Admins: Visit the Help Center to familiarize yourself with
the process for re-enrolling a device, as well as our
developer documentation.End users: There is no end user impact or action required.
Rollout pace
Availability
This update impacts all Google Workspace customers with Meet Hardware devices.
