With this release, users are now able to maintain efficient workflows and securely move data between corporate Workspace accounts and other authorized, managed third-party applications without being blocked. For added data protection, this capability strictly prevents the transfer of that data to personal accounts within the same managed Google application or to unmanaged personal apps.
For example, a user is able to copy a client's email address from their corporate Gmail account and successfully paste it into a managed third-party CRM application. When they try to paste that same email address into their personal Gmail account, they are blocked and receive the following message: "This information can only be shared within your organization's Google Workspace apps.”
