Earlier this year, we launched Google Drive inventory reporting in beta — beginning today, this feature is generally available. Compared to APIs, exporting inventory reports to BigQuery empowers admins to understand their data more deeply, providing insights into how their data is classified, accessed, and used. Understanding these metrics can help admins to identify security risks, ensure compliance with regulatory requirements, and more. For more information, please reference our anuncio original. 

Alongside general availability, we’re pleased to announce new functionality: 

When generated, inventory reports will follow the data regions settings established by admins. Within reports, you can now view the email address of the file creator, what organizational unit the file owner belongs to, and inherited permissions for shared drive items. For greater admin visibility into inventory reporting related actions, audit events are now captured for configuration updates, configuration deletion & creation, as well as completed and failed reports.
