Quickly find and use Google Chat apps and Workspace actions with the redesigned integrations menu

Google Chat is getting a redesigned integrations menu to make finding and using apps faster and easier. Users can access this menu by clicking the plus button next to the compose bar or by typing a forward slash. This new menu allows for quicker searching of apps and execution of commands with fewer clicks. For instance, typing "/poll" will now directly launch the Poll app. Alternatively, pressing the plus button will reveal options like creating calendar invites, uploading Drive files, or sending Meet links. Admins can manage these chat apps at various organizational levels. For end users, this feature will be enabled by default. A gradual rollout for this update begins on September 29, 2025, for both Rapid and Scheduled Release domains. This enhancement will be available to all Google Workspace customers, Workspace Individual Subscribers, and users with personal Google accounts. Resources are available in the Help Center for both administrators and end users.
