Programmatically create and configure Meet calls. Retrieve information about past meetings, such as the meeting times and attendees. Access meeting artifacts, such as transcripts and video recordings. Subscribe to real time updates on meetings, such as when a participant joins or leaves.
The API will give partners and customers the ability to create and configure Meet video conferences, allow their end users to join a conference, and post real-time updates from within their own applications.
Using the Meet API, Outreach is ingesting meeting recordings and transcripts into their AI-powered conversation intelligence tool, Kaia, to deliver rich insights to their teams.

Why you’d use it
Incorporating your product with the Google Meet API streamlines workflows and provides your product with Meet information that easily enhances your product offering. For example, partners such as Hubspot, Outreach, Salesloft and Salesforce currently integrate the Meet API to pull meeting recordings and artifacts into their conversational intelligence tools for analysis and sales coaching.
Additionally, integrating with the Google Meet API enables you to link your app with Meet’s video conferencing capabilities, allowing users to access a secure video conferencing product from their own UI by the click of a button. Brandlive, a leading webinar and event platform, uses the Google Meet API as a way to create and configure video sessions for larger sessions and smaller breakout conversations.

What’s changing
We recently introduced numerous enhancements across Google Chat, and today we’re excited to announce the general availability of three features highlighting a new integrated experience.
The redesigned navigation panel brings direct messages and spaces together and introduces shortcuts, a new framework to help you stay on top of your messages.
To reduce friction while navigating between messages, home helps you quickly catch up on any new activity across all conversations in a single location. Additionally, you can narrow down your view by filtering for unread messages.
Mentions give you visibility into the messages addressed specifically to you. Within this single destination for important, actionable messages, you can see and navigate to the messages that @-mention you.
In addition to these improvements to the user experience, we’re updating the icon for Google Chat over the coming weeks. The new icon has a cohesive look with other popular Workspace products and reflects the central role of business messaging and collaboration in Workspace.

Why you’d use it
These features are designed to help you stay on top of the busy flow of communication and make it easier to prioritize and find the conversations that are most important to you.
Additional details
The direct message and spaces sections will be listed separately, but are scrollable and collapsable in one unified list.
The list of messages where you have been @-mentioned are sorted by recency.
Each row represents the message within the thread that mentions you. If you are mentioned multiple times in a conversation, each mention will show up as one row. Unread messages are highlighted in light blue and include a blue dot. Clicking on a message in the Home or Mentions view will bring you directly to the conversation or thread where you can respond.

We’re adding a new filter to Google Drive that lets you see which files or folders have been shared with specific people or groups.
Whether you’re trying to share a file with more audiences or reduce oversharing, this feature will give you greater visibility into who has access to files within and outside of your organization.
Getting started
Admins: There is no admin control for this feature. The groups that appear in the People filter are based on the
target audiences set up at the domain level by admins. End users: To find files shared with a person or group in drive.google.com: Navigate to My Drive, Shared drives, Shared with me, or RecentClick on “People” filterSearch for a person or group who the files are shared with in the filterSelect “Shared with”View the filtered list of filesTo find files shared outside of your organization: Navigate to My Drive, Shared drives, Shared with me, or RecentClick on “People” filterSelect “External users”View the filtered list of filesTo find files you own that are shared with a specific person or group: Navigate to My Drive, Shared drives, Shared with me, or RecentClick on “People” filterSearch for yourself and select “Owner”Click on “People” filterSearch for a person or group who the files are shared with in the filterView the filtered list of files

What’s changing
We’re making several changes which will make scheduling large scale meetings (up to 100k guests per event) easier and guide schedulers through the process with more context. Once you’ve created and saved a Calendar event which contains a large group of attendees, you can open the event to check on the invitation progress. As groups are successfully added, they will appear in the guest list and you will see an “invitation in progress” message as invitations are being sent.
Note the “invitation in progress” message as invitations are being sent.
As groups are successfully added, they will appear in the guest list
You’ll see these updates when using Calendar on the web and as such we recommend using Calendar on the web to schedule larger events.
Who’s impacted
End users
Why it’s important
Coordinating events with a large number of attendees can be complex — including ensuring that all attendees have been successfully invited. We’ve introduced these updates to help you more confidently schedule large group events. Specifically, you will now have clarity whether the event was successfully saved and invitations sent to all participants, or still in progress. If the scheduling fails, you’ll be informed of the exact status including who has been invited and who has not, to make it easy for you to fix the issue. We hope this improved experience helps you confidently schedule larger meetings, like all-hands meetings or town halls.
Additional details
If there’s a problem inviting guests, you’ll see an error message when you open the Calendar event, as well as a notification via email. In both cases, we’ll share more context regarding the error and how to fix it. For example, we’ll let you know if you’ve exceeded the Calendar event limit of 100k guests and recommend that you add smaller groups or duplicate the event to accommodate more attendees.
Getting started
Admins: There is no admin impact or action required for this update.End users: You’ll notice these improvements automatically. Visit the Help Center to learn more about inviting groups to calendar events.

We’re updating the homepage of the Google Drive mobile app on Android and iOS mobile devices to help you more easily find the right file much faster.
An updated suggested view will allow you to see even more recommended files at once, such as those that have been recently opened, shared or edited.
The Suggested view
In addition, we’re replacing the notifications view with
activity view, which recently launched on web. Here you can see items that need your attention such as
pending access requests, recent comments, and awaiting approvals, all in one place.
Getting started
Admins: There is no admin control for this feature. End users: There is no end user setting for this feature. If you do not want to use the home tab, the app will simply open up on whatever tab you last used, such as Shared or Files.
