Google Workspace Updates
You can use dropdown chips to easily indicate the status of your document or various project milestones outlined in your document. Google provides two default dropdown options:
- Project Status, which includes selections for “Not Started”, “Blocked”, “In Progress” and “Complete”
- Review Status, which includes selections for “Not Started”, “In Progress”, “Under Review” and “Approved”.
You can also create a dropdown chip with custom options and colors to best suit your needs by clicking on Insert > Dropdown.

The feature is now available for all UNLVMail (@unlv.edu) and Rebelmail accounts (@unlv.nevada.edu)
Please visit the Google Workspace Learning Center to learn more about dropdown chips.
You can now start or join a Google Meet call directly from within Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides.
During the call, Google Meet is docked to a side panel so that you can collaborate with your meeting participants on your document, spreadsheet, or presentation without having to switch between two different tabs.
This enables everyone in the meeting to collaborate in real-time while having a conversation—all from the same tab.

You can now create a booking page in Google Calendar, which can then be shared with your colleagues, students, and external partners and customers, including those without a Google account, to schedule time with you.
This new feature also include automatic appointment conflict detection and it allows you to customize your appointment availability, including:
- Limit early or last-minute booking
- Limit the max number of appointments per day
- Automatically add custom buffer time in between appointments
Appointment Scheduling will eventually replace the existing appointment slot feature in Google Calendar. If you have not used appointment slots before, appointment scheduling will be enabled by default. If you have used appointment slots before, you can enable appointment scheduling in your Calendar settings.
