Email notifications from Google now available in the Alert Center
What’s changing
Admins routinely receive notifications from Google to inform them about important Google Workspace updates. These notifications can be related to a variety of things, including security, billing or critical product changes.
Now when admins receive these notifications, they’ll also be captured in the Alert Center in the admin console. This will help make it easier for admins to stay on top of important communications from Google.
