The Gemini app is now a core service with enterprise-grade data protection for more Google Workspace editions

What’s changing

As we recently announced, driven by our belief that generative AI can be transformative for every user, the standalone Gemini app (gemini.google.com) will now be included as part of most Google Workspace editions. With enterprise-grade data protections built in, users can now save time and deliver higher quality work — securely and compliantly — with an AI-powered assistant at work.

Beginning today, the Gemini app is now available as a core service with enterprise-grade data protection for Google Workspace users with the following editions:

  • Business Starter, Business Standard, Business Plus
  • Enterprise Starter, Enterprise Standard, Enterprise Plus
  • Frontline Starter, Frontline Standard
  • Essentials, Enterprise Essentials, Enterprise Essentials Plus
  • Education Standard, Education Plus 
  • Google Workspace for Nonprofits

Additional details

As a core service, the Gemini app will be covered under your existing Google Workspace or Google Workspace for Education agreement and will include the same technical support as other Workspace services. Gemini prompts, data, or generated responses won’t be reviewed by human reviewers or otherwise used to improve generative AI models without permission. More information on how we’re protecting your Google Workspace data in the era of generative AI can be found here.

Note: For Education customers, added data protection is available in the Gemini app as either a core or additional service.

Admin console service settings update
As part of this launch, we will be streamlining the Gemini app service settings in the Admin console. Specifically, we will be transitioning to a single checkbox for the user access setting:

The updated Gemini service setting (Admin console > Generative AI > Gemini app > User Access)



When the setting is unchecked (default state for most customers), the Gemini app as a core service with enterprise-grade data protection will be enabled only for:

  • Gemini for Workspace licensed users
  • Users with a qualifying Workspace edition


When the setting is checked, the Gemini app will be enabled for all users, specifically:

  • Gemini for Workspace licensed users
  • Users with a qualifying Workspace edition
  • Users without a qualifying Workspace edition can access the Gemini app as an additional service

Broader availability of Workspace extensions in Gemini
Expanding the Gemini app as a core service also allows these Workspace editions to leverage Google Workspace extensions in Gemini, which are currently available in open beta for users 18 and older. Once enabled by an admin, extensions allow Gemini to cross reference various Google Workspace apps, like Gmail, Drive, Docs, Calendar, Keep and Tasks, as data sources to better inform its responses. Visit the Help Center to learn more about turning Google Workspace extensions on or off for your organization. 


Getting started

  • Admins: 
    • For new Google Workspace Business, Enterprise, and Frontline customers: Access to the Gemini app as a core service with enterprise-grade data protection will be ON by default. 
    • For new Workspace for Education customers: Access to the Gemini app will be OFF by default for Primary and Secondary (K12) customers, and ON by default for Higher Education customers.
    • Visit the Help Center to learn more about turning the Gemini app on or off for users.

  • End users: Visit the Help Center to learn more about using the Gemini app.

Audit security settings using the Policy API, now available in open beta

What’s changing

Simplifying the management of Workspace settings continues to be a priority for us. To that end, we’re introducing new tools to help streamline the process for admins. 

Launching to open beta today, we’re pleased to introduce the Policy API, which will help super admins programmatically access information regarding how their Google Workspace environment service level settings and rules are configured. With the Policy API, customers  gain a comprehensive view of all their settings, giving them a holistic view of Workspace security and compliance configurations. Admins will no longer have to navigate through numerous pages in the Admin Console.

To start, the Policy API is available as a read-only API. In future releases, admins will be able to use the API to create, update, and delete their settings, as well as data loss prevention (DLP) rules. Admins will be able to use the API to audit certain settings in the following categories:

  • Authentication controls such as account recovery, advanced protection program, login challenges, passwords.
  • Chat
  • Classroom
  • Docs and Drive 
  • Gmail 
  • Groups
  • Marketplace
  • Meet 
  • Sites
  • Takeout

The Policy API can also be used to read DLP rules, including the ability to:
  • Read all DLP rule configurations in the admin console, including: rule names and descriptions; applicable organization units (OUs) and groups; triggers and conditions; and app-specific alert actions.
  • Read existing DLP detectors available in the admin console including the detector name, description, and wordlist configurations.
  • Read admin-modified system defined alerts.

Who’s impacted

Super Admins


Why it’s important

With the increase in sophistication and scale of cyber threats, the Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency’s Secure Cloud Business Applications (SCuBA) project provides guidance to secure agencies’ cloud business application environments and protect federal information that is created, accessed, shared and stored in those environments. 


The Policy API provides access to the settings that are part of these recommendations published in CISA’s Google Workspace secure configuration baselines. Customers who wish to evaluate their Workspace policies against these baselines can start testing using the Policy API. In future releases, we plan to expand support for additional policies described in CISA’s Workspace baselines.  


Getting started

  • Admins: You must be a super admin to use the Policy API. Use our Developer Documentation to learn more about the Policy API.
  • End users: There is no end user impact or action required.

Rollout pace

  • Available now.

  • Available to all Google Workspace customers

If not, each stage of rollout should take no more than 15 business days to complete.




Create an email for a Google Chat space from the Admin console  
Earlier this year, we introduced a new feature that enables users to send emails to spaces in Google Chat. When this launched, existing Google Group policies determined by the domain admin were respected. For example, if the admin restricted group creation in their organization, users would also be restricted from generating emails for spaces in Chat. To improve upon this experience, we’re happy to announce that admins can now create an email for a space from the Admin console. To do so, navigate to Google Chat > 'Manage spaces' > select a space > 'Space settings' > click 'Generate email' to create an email address for the space. In addition, email conversations sent to spaces will now show replies in a thread instead of as separate cards in the message stream. | The Admin console update is rolling out now to Rapid Release and Scheduled Release domains. Threading for emails in spaces will rollout to Rapid Release and Scheduled Release domains starting on October 17, 2024. | Available to all Google Workspace customers. | Visit the Help Center to learn more about sending emails to spaces in Chat.
