Use your Gems in your Google Workspace Studio flows

We are integrating Gems into Google Workspace Studio as a step that you can add to your flows.

The Ask a Gem step allows you to have your flows send a prompt to private Gems to automate tasks like creating summaries or writing documents. You can use any Gem with Drive files in its knowledge base (Gems with Google Photos or other file types will not appear in Studio).

Use the Ask a Gem step to send prompts to Gems

Introducing data import: An easier, faster, and higher-fidelity migration to Google Workspace at no additional tool cost

For enterprises, data migrations and change management for a new productivity and collaboration platform can feel daunting and create business disruption across the organization. Not anymore. Today, we are excited to announce the general availability of our new Google Workspace data migration tool for enterprises: Data import.

With data import, enterprise organizations will be able to achieve easier, faster, and higher-fidelity data migrations than before for emails, calendars, and contacts – all at no additional tool cost. Moreover, the substantial time and cost-savings to IT teams will free up their bandwidth and budget to prioritize other business critical tasks.

Data import provides:

  • Ease of use: A turnkey, scalable cloud-native solution that can be accessed and deployed directly from the admin console.
  • Quicker speeds and accuracy: Finish importing data sooner with faster migration speeds from parallelization and improved algorithms.
  • No additional tool cost to use: No additional infrastructure costs for Google Cloud Platform (GCP) during migration or licensing costs for third-party data migration tools.


Additionally, customers will have access to a new migration planning utility that will help improve their change management and data migration forecasting. The migration planning utility is available to provide migration timeline estimates and organize user data into speed-optimized batches. This offers customers zero-friction discovery and data-driven planning when undertaking large scale enterprise migrations from Microsoft 365 to Google Workspace.

Additional details

Data import and the migration planning utility are now available to accelerate enterprise-scale data migrations for Microsoft Exchange Online, with additional support for OneDrive, SharePoint Online, and Teams coming soon.

Search faster and smarter with AI Overviews in Gmail search

Your inbox is full of critical information that you need to get your work done, but uncovering it shouldn't mean running endless searches just to sift through fragmented email threads. With AI Overviews in Gmail search, you can now ask natural language questions in Gmail’s search bar and get concise summaries and answers without digging through emails.


In the Gmail search bar, type in questions such as:

  • “What are the performance improvements Owen mentioned?”
  • “What are the milestones we agreed to for “Project Astro”?
  • “Which invoices have I already paid and which are still outstanding to Sandbox Supplies?”
  • “What were the latest comments from the UX deck?”
  • “What are the details of my upcoming trip to New York?”
You’ll get instant summaries that pull context from across multiple conversations. No more searching your inbox for scattered details—just the answers you need, right when you need them.

Note that we previously launched this feature to users with Google AI Pro and Ultra subscriptions; we’re now bringing it to business and education users with eligible licenses (see availability below).
