What’s changing 

Google Drive Inventory reporting now supports scheduling a daily export of your Drive data assets to BigQuery, in addition to the existing weekly cadence. Compared to APIs, exporting inventory reports to BigQuery empowers administrators 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.

Admins can now apply Context-Aware Access (CAA) policies to apps which use OpenID Connect (OIDC), which are a subset of OAuth apps that are authenticated using Google sign-in. Admins can use a single setting to apply CAA policies to all OIDC apps by default. We are not providing per app access control for individual apps at this moment. The new OIDC setting can also be applied in monitor mode for admins to gauge potential end user impact before applying in active mode. 

CAA creates granular access control security policies for apps based on attributes, such as user identity, location, device security status, and IP address, and they can be applied to users on personal and managed devices. Expanding CAA to encompass OIDC apps means admins can ensure their users are able to access or are blocked from accessing these apps according to the broader security parameters of their organizations. 

Admins can configure CAA policies for OIDC apps in the Admin console under Security > Context-Aware Access > General settings 

Getting started 

  • Admins: CAA for OIDC apps can be configured at the OU level. Visit the Help Center to learn more about context-aware access, creating context-aware access levels, and assigning access levels to third-party apps. 
  • End users: If enabled by your admin, you can access certain apps when authenticating using your Google sign-in. Or you may see a message letting you know that you cannot use Google sign-in to authenticate with certain apps or you may see remediation messages which will provide some options on how to unblock apps.

What’s changing 

We’re introducing a new approval workflow option for enterprise users to request access to third-party apps that have not been explicitly configured via App Access Control (AAC) by an admin. This only applies to apps which have not been configured. If a user is able to access an app today based on the policies configured by their admin, then there will be no change and they will continue to be able to access the app. 

When end users attempt to access unconfigured third-party apps and get blocked, they will see an error screen with an option to raise a review request to admins. After the user submits a request, admins will be able to review the end user requests in app access control and make a decision. 

This feature gives enterprise users a clear process for requesting access to apps they need, reducing the likelihood of them being completely blocked and improving their productivity. For admins, it provides a centralized and efficient way to manage and configure access for new applications within their organization, while maintaining control over data security. 

An example of the dialog that the end user will see when access is blocked, with an opportunity to request access

Who’s impacted 

Admins and end users 

Getting started 

  • Admins: 
    • This feature will be ON by default and can be enabled at the organizational unit (OU) level. You can enable the setting for users to request access to unconfigured apps in the Admin console under API Controls Settings. Visit the Help Center to learn more about user requests for unconfigured apps. 
  • End users: 
    • There is no end user setting for this feature. When the approval workflow is enforced, users will see a new screen that allows them to request access to the app from their admin.

We’re adding an additional data field for Google Meet log events: encryption_type, which will indicate whether standard cloud encryption or client-side encryption was used for a call endpoint. This information can also be called using the Admin Reports SDK API under the values: cloud_encryption and cse_encryption.


Example of a meeting without client-side encryption and a meeting with standard encryption. The encryption type will be captured in Meet log events going forward.

What’s changing 

We’re introducing several changes to make the act of training custom AI models for data classification in Google Drive more efficient:
  • Multi-model Support: When AI classification first launched, the product supported training a single model for a single label field.  Now, customers can train up to five unique models.  Common use cases for multiple models are:
    • Models for different labels
    • Models for different fields of a single label
    • Multiple models for the same label & field combination, with different training datasets curated for separate audiences 



  • On-demand Training: Training AI classification models can be an interactive process.  With the former version of the product, the models would train on a predefined schedule.  Now, the administrator can decide when to train the model, initiating the training process on demand – enabling organizations to move at their own pace! 
  • Refreshed UI: We’ve redesigned the AI classification experience from the ground up with a new onboarding flow and model details page.  With the redesigned UI, Workspace Administrators will now see richer insights into the status of model training, metrics on their training data, model recall scores, and a history of their model versions. 

Who’s impacted 

  • Admins

Why it matters 

  • Powered by privacy-preserving AI models that can be uniquely trained on specific customer needs, AI classification automatically identifies, classifies, and labels files in Google Drive. This helps organizations standardize data classification and achieve labeling consistency at scale. Labels can then be used to trigger rules on files that can and cannot be shared through data loss prevention (DLP) controls, lifecycle management policies, as well as audit and reporting use cases. These latest enhancements give admins the flexibility to train models when they need to and for the specific and dynamic needs of their organization.

What’s changing

Earlier this year, we announced an open beta for migrating files from Microsoft SharePoint Online to Google Drive in the New Data Migration service. Beginning today, this functionality is now generally available.

Admins can use the New Data Migration service to migrate data from SharePoint Online sites, including document libraries, folders, files and associated permissions, helping organizations transition to Google Workspace quickly and easily.

Additionally, you’ll notice a new, streamlined  interface designed to simplify your migration experience.


Example of a running Microsoft SharePoint Online migration

Additional details

  • You can migrate data from up to 100 SharePoint Online sites at a time to Shared Drives in Google Drive.
  • You can find comprehensive reporting on migration progress, including site and file counts (migrated/skipped). You can also export migration reports for error investigation and troubleshooting. 
  • Delta updates are available to migrate newly added or updated files.

What’s changing

Gemini Audit logs are now accessible through the Reporting API (Admin SDK). This allows admins to track user activity and interactions with Gemini in the Gemini app and Workspace apps, including: 
  • The action performed by the user within a Workspace application, initiated or assisted by Gemini. For example: formalizing copy, generating a background, or summarizing a conversation. 
  • The specific app where Gemini was used, for example Chat, Gmail, or Docs. 
  • The specific features which were used, for example “help me write”, “remove image background” or “help me organize”. 
  • And more – see our API documentation for more information on the types of Gemini in Workspace activity you can query. 
As part of this update, this information will be available in the security investigation tool and audit investigation tool as well. 

Who’s impacted 

Admins 

Why you’d use it

Admins can use the Reports API to analyze how their users are engaging with Gemini at scale. These valuable insights can help organizations get the most out of Gemini. Specifically: 
  • Monitoring adoption and usage: Admins can track the overall use of Gemini features across the organization and within specific Workspace applications (Gmail, Docs, Slides, Sheets, Gemini app). This includes identifying the number of active Gemini users, their usage patterns per app, and the “Last Used” time stamp for each user. 
  • Understanding feature utilization: The reports detail how frequently specific Gemini features like content summarization and generation are used within different applications. 
  • Identifying training needs: By observing feature and app usage, admins can pinpoint areas where users might require additional training or resources to maximize their use of Gemini's capabilities. 
  • Identifying power users: The reports can help identify individuals who are heavily utilizing Gemini features, potentially recognizing internal champions who can share their expertise and best practices with other users. 
Further, surfacing this information in the audit and investigation tool can help admins review user activity related to Gemini, while the security and investigation tool can help admins to identify, triage, and take action on potential security and privacy issues.

Getting started

What’s changing 

We’re improving the granularity of Google Meet hardware Admin log events. This upgrade offers a more comprehensive and precise audit trail, enabling you to better track and understand administrative actions related to your Google Meet hardware. This increased visibility will enhance your organization's security and facilitate more effective troubleshooting. 

First, the “HANGOUTS DEVICE SETTING” event category is going away and will be replaced with a new event type: “GOOGLE MEET HARDWARE”. This does not apply for “Chromebox for meetings Device Setting Change”, which will move to “APPLICATION SETTING” in a follow-up launch. 

The following changes made in the Google Meet hardware Admin console will be logged as an Admin log event under “GOOGLE MEET HARDWARE”:
  • Change lifecycle state on Meet device 
  • Change OU membership of Meet device 
  • Change properties on Meet device 
    • This includes all information found in the Admin console under Devices > Google Meet Hardware > Devices > [Device name] > Device settings. 
  • Perform bulk action on Meet devices
  • Perform command on Meet device

You can also view additional fields related to these new events, including: 
  • Device ID 
  • Resource ID(s) for Serial Number 
  • Device type (will always be ‘meet’) 
  • Action(s) (if applicable) 
  • Setting name (if applicable) 
  • And, if applicable, additional information, such as the meeting code and more. 
Note that some fields are not visible in the log viewer by default; you can add additional fields using the “Manage columns” button.



In the coming weeks, you will be able to create, change, and delete application settings under “Application Settings”. All changes to settings found in the Admin console under Devices > Google Meet hardware > Settings will be audited here. We will share more details in the coming weeks. 

Additional details 

In the coming months, we are removing all events under the “HANGOUTS DEVICE SETTINGS” event type since the product name is obsolete, and the new events will include this information and even more data. Prior to their removal, you’ll still be able to filter for these events, however new activity will be only captured under the new “GOOGLE MEET HARDWARE” events.

What’s changing 

Gmail now allows users with hardware keys, such as PIV/CAC smartcards, to directly manage their digital signature and encryption certificates within Gmail settings. Prior to this update, admins needed to upload encryption keys for their users – now users can configure their own keys in Gmail, without needing an admin. 

Gmail > Settings > Accounts > Encryption certificates

Additional details 

While Workspace encrypts data at rest and in transit by using secure-by-design cryptographic libraries, client-side encryption ensures that you have sole control over encryption keys and access to your data. Client-side encryption ensures sensitive data in the email body and attachments are indecipherable to Google servers — you retain control over encryption keys and the identity service to access those keys. For more information, check out our original announcement and the Workspace blog. 

Getting started 

  • Admins: In order for your users to add certificates from a hardware key, you must first enable and install the Workspace Hardware Keys application to user machines. 
  • End users: Visit the Help Center to learn more about using hardware keys for encryption.

What’s changing 

Last year, we introduced multi-party approval (MPA), a security feature that requires an admin to approve certain sensitive actions initiated by another admin. Today, we’re enhancing this feature by giving admins more granular controls, specifically: 
  • Admins can now select which specific settings require multi-party approval. 
  • Admins can choose separate multi-party approval settings for actions that are supported via API and the admin console, such as configuring single-sign on with a third-party identity provider. 
  • Super admins can now delegate specific admins to approve MPA actions using the new multi-party approval role for admins.
You can configure multi-party approval on a per action basis by going to Security > Authentication > Multi-party approved settings in the Admin console


Account > Admin Roles 

Who’s impacted 

Admins 

Why it’s important 

Multi-party approval adds an extra layer of security for sensitive actions taken in the admin console by ensuring sensitive actions are not implemented in a silo and, more importantly, helps prevent unauthorized or accidental changes from being made. 

We understand each customer has their own unique definition of security and what constitutes a high-risk action. By introducing more granular controls, we’re giving our customers the authority to decide what features should be subject to multi-party approvals and who has the authority to review these actions, in a way that works best for them, rather than the experience being “all or nothing”. 

Additional details 

To further strengthen security around sensitive actions, admins now require both 'reviewer' and 'requester' privileges for a given action to conduct its MPA review. This ensures that the approving admin possesses the direct authority to perform the action themselves, reinforcing the integrity of the approval process and preventing approvals from individuals with inadequate underlying permissions. 
 

Getting started 

  • Admins: This feature is available for eligible Workspace customers with two or more super admin accounts. Multi-party approval is OFF by default and can be turned on in the Admin console by going to Security > Multi-party approval settings. Visit the Help Center to learn more about multi-party approval for sensitive actions and pre-built admin roles.
  • End users: There is no end user impact or action required.

In January 2025, we announced our plan to bring premium AI features directly to our Business and Enterprise offerings, helping our customers and their users boost productivity, creativity, and innovation, transforming how they work. We also stopped charging for Gemini add-ons that you may have purchased previously for your Business and Enterprise offerings after January 31, 2025.

This week, as part of a shift in our offerings, we will begin removing references to the Gemini Enterprise, Gemini Business, AI Meetings & Messages, and AI Security add-ons from the Subscriptions page within the Admin console (Menu > Billing > Subscriptions). This change will apply to customers whose Workspace edition now includes all functionality previously available with these add-ons. 

For example, if you had a Workspace Business Standard or Enterprise Standard subscription and a Gemini Business add-on, the add-on is no longer needed since the applicable AI features are now included in your Workspace subscription.

Important note: There will be no disruptions in service or changes in feature availability with this change. This change will have no effect on your bill.

Getting started

  • Admins: No action is needed – we will make these updates to the Subscriptions page automatically. 
  • End users: There is no end user impact or action required.

Rollout pace

  • This update will begin taking effect starting June 25, 2025 and may take several weeks to rollout for affected customers.

    Following last year's announcement of form creators being able to limit Google Form response access to specific users, groups, or target audiences, we’re introducing granular admin controls for form responses. 

    Specifically, admins can now independently control two distinct settings: 
    • Whether users in their domain can respond to forms created externally. 
    • Whether users in their domain can share forms with external recipients. 
    This new setting may help minimize data exfiltration risks by enabling admins to implement specific security measures for Forms, independent of existing Google Drive sharing restrictions. 

    Getting started 

    • Admins:
      • The Forms specific admin override will be ON by default for external sharing of forms created in the domain and for responding to forms created externally. 
      • There are two distinct override settings to control if forms created inside a domain can be shared externally for responses and whether users inside the domain can respond to external forms. These overrides can be applied to organizational units, similar to other Drive sharing policies. 
      • To control whether form owners can get responses from users outside their domain, go to the Admin console > Drive and Docs settings > “Form responses > “Allow forms owned by users in [your organization] to accept responses from anyone with the link outside [your organization], even if external sharing isn't allowed.” 
      • To control whether users in the domain are permitted to respond to forms created outside of the domain, go to the Admin console > Drive and Docs settings > “Form responses” > “Allow users in [your organization] to submit responses to forms from users or shared drives. outside of [your organization], even if receiving external files isn't allowed.” 
        • If ON, users in the domain will continue to be able to respond to external forms. 
        • If OFF, the admin setting to control whether external Drive documents can be shared into the domain will apply to Forms and form responders in your domain could be blocked from responding to external forms 
      • Visit the Help Center to learn more about managing external sharing for your organization.
    • End users: There is no end user setting for this feature.

    What’s changing

    The ability to migrate email from Microsoft Exchange Online to Google Workspace, part of our new Data migration service, is now generally available. Admins can migrate email from Microsoft Exchange Online to Gmail directly from the Admin console in a few easy steps. This also includes the ability to run delta migrations, which will intelligently  bring over new emails from the source without duplicating previously migrated content. This allows admins to migrate email data into Workspace at scale, in a secure, reliable, and efficient manner, helping to streamline the transition to Workspace.

    Additionally, we’ve added the ability for admins to migrate users’ calendars and calendar events from Microsoft Exchange Online to Google Calendar (available in open beta). This content can be migrated separately or simultaneously with email content. We’ve also increased the number of users whose emails and calendar events can be migrated to 250 users at a time.

    Admins

    Why it matters 

    Data regions are critical for ensuring many customers can meet their own internal requirements, as well as other legal, regulatory, and data sovereignty requirements by controlling the geographical location of their data at rest. Expanding these controls to Gemini features in Google Workspace allows our customers to adopt Gemini features broadly in their organization with confidence  that their data is being processed and stored in the location they require.
