Earlier this year, we introduced the ability to send voice messages in Google Chat to help users save time, convey more information, and emphasize the most important information for the message receiver. To build upon this highly requested communication feature and increase accessibility in Chat, we’re excited to announce voice messages transcription.
Starting today, users will be able to see an automatic transcription of voice messages in Chat on web and mobile. This update enables content consumption in a user’s preferred format or the format that is most convenient at that particular moment.

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:

What’s changing
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.
Who’s impacted
Admins
Why you’d use it
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.

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.

Why you’d use it
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.
Getting started
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.
