Enhancing the Google Calendar appointment scheduling experience with additional features
Google is updating appointment schedules by adding new features to enhance the overall experience. First, Google is adding the option to designate a custom weekly recurrence when creating an appointment schedule in Calendar, which will allow users to make the schedule repeat on more flexible recurrences. Second, bookers (and co-hosts) can now add other guests or rooms to booked events. Lastly, the appointment schedule creator can now add Google Groups as co-hosts during the setup process so users can more easily host appointments with others.
Announcing the general availability of Google Workspace's Assured Controls, the future of digital sovereignty
The full suite of sovereign capabilities within Assured Controls Plus for Workspace is now generally available and will begin to roll out to EU and US customers. This means that customers can select the region where their data should be processed and stored, with granular controls to allow administrators to easily refine the region and level of compliance appropriate to their organizational groups. Workspace customers have the flexibility to select multiple geographies to suit their needs, versus being restricted to one region mandated by billing address. It's digital sovereignty made simple, so you can focus on your business, rather than on securing your data.
Pre-configure meeting notes, recordings, and transcripts from the Calendar invite
Google Meet hosts can now pre-configure meeting notes, meeting recordings, and meeting transcripts from the Calendar invite. This helps ensure that these specific artifacts are automatically captured, reducing the need for the meeting host to turn them on during the meeting, removing awkward pauses or the risk of forgetting to turn them on all together.
Manage your compliance and data controls from a single source in the Admin console
Compliance and data controls are paramount for Google customers, both in understanding Google Workspace’s policies and configuring compliance-relevant features according to the needs of their business sector and geographical region. To help customers navigate these complexities, Google has centralized some of these relevant features and information into a single location in the admin console: Data.
