What’s changing
Following the introduction of
tables in Google Sheets and the recently announced
improvements to tables, we’re excited to support a new automated way for users to transform their data into a well-formatted table, with rich data types.
If you have a meaningful range of data, Sheets will show a “Convert to table” suggestion when you click into your data range. By hovering over that indicator, you can preview the suggestion and then convert your range to a table in one click.
Who’s impacted
End users
Why you’d use it
This update encourages the use of tables, a feature that enables users to transform the way they organize their data, simplify data creation, and reduce the repetitive tasks needed to format, input, and update data in Sheets.
Getting started
Admins: There is no admin control for this feature. End users: This feature will be on by default and can be disabled by going to Tools > Suggestion controls > (deselect) Enable table suggestions. While the suggestion to convert to table will likely appear automatically, you can also convert data to a table manually by selecting a data range and going to Format > Convert to table. Visit the Help Center to learn more about
using tables in Google Sheets.
Rollout pace
Rapid Release domains: Extended rollout (potentially longer than 15 days for feature visibility) starting on August 13, 2024
Scheduled Release domains: Gradual rollout (up to 15 days for feature visibility) starting on September 4, 2024
Availability
Available to all Google Workspace customers, Google Workspace Individual Subscribers, and users with personal Google accounts

We’re introducing a new setting that enables education admins to restrict which users can create and manage members in Google Chat conversations.
This can be useful for admins who want to prevent groups of students from initiating or adding users to a conversation.
Who’s impacted
Admins and end users
Why it’s important
This is a highly-requested feature that restricts the creation of unsupervised activity among K-12 students and helps provide a safer and easier way for teachers to communicate with students.
Getting started
Admins: To restrict users from accessing features in Chat, go to the Admin console > Apps > Google Workspace > Google Chat > click the Chat and Space restrictions setting > Inside the Google Chat box, search for the group of users you’d like to apply Chat restrictions to > check the box for Restrict creating direct messages, group messages, and spaces > hit Save. Note: groups can be restricted at the group level only.We recommend admins enable the “
automatically accept chat invitations” setting for their OU. This will ensure teachers can easily initiate messages to students that instantly deliver without the need to accept an invitation. We also recommend
turning OFF Chat with external users.Visit the Help Center to learn more about
setting up Chat restrictions for Education accounts.End users: There is no end user setting for this feature.

We’re introducing a new feature that enables users to more easily view and structure their Google Form data in Sheets.
Starting today, when a user initiates the creation of a new sheet using their Forms data, Sheets will automatically open the data as a table, bringing format and structure to your data. If a user opens a pre-existing sheet connected to a Form, there will be no change and the user will need to convert the data to a table by going to Format > Convert to table.
Getting started
Admins: There is no admin control for this feature. End users: For pre-existing spreadsheets connected to Form data, you can convert the data to a table manually by selecting the data range and going to Format > Convert to table. Visit the Help Center to learn more about
using tables in Google Sheets.
Rollout pace
Rapid Release domains: Extended rollout (potentially longer than 15 days for feature visibility) starting on August 15, 2024
Scheduled Release domains: Extended rollout (potentially longer than 15 days for feature visibility) starting on September 5, 2024
