We’re calling these add-ons “unmigrated add-ons.”<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3Q6jUDp890BvJlwrCps41IMC7xaNZFAJCJQ7BFDsHnbzEFWN-ofbxKcl0L0kpsn6gTigNdXNQP_gsxC39FXBloh57Li0wF8hJcugp8uW2tkjedqAFnOapVGbcAEFHnYQ5n-kbGvujxSo/s1600/gsm_editors.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="431" data-original-width="640" height="430" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3Q6jUDp890BvJlwrCps41IMC7xaNZFAJCJQ7BFDsHnbzEFWN-ofbxKcl0L0kpsn6gTigNdXNQP_gsxC39FXBloh57Li0wF8hJcugp8uW2tkjedqAFnOapVGbcAEFHnYQ5n-kbGvujxSo/s640/gsm_editors.gif" width="640" /></a></div><br /><h3 style="text-align: left;">Who’s impacted</h3>Admins and end users<br /><br /><h3 style="text-align: left;">Why it matters</h3>Existing users of unmigrated add-ons will continue to be able to use them. However, if they uninstall Editors add-ons or Drive apps, they won’t be able to reinstall them. Moreover, if an existing user creates a <a href="https://support.google.com/docs/answer/148833" target="_blank">template</a> with one of these add-ons, any users who don’t already have the add-on installed won’t be able to use the add-on within the template.<br /><br /><h3 style="text-align: left;">How to get started</h3><br /><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><b>Admins and end users</b>: No action is required. To check whether an add-on has been migrated, search for it in the <a href="https://gsuite.google.com/marketplace" target="_blank">G Suite Marketplace</a>. </li><li><b>Developers</b>: Drive apps and Editor Add-ons must have a G Suite Marketplace listing prior to September 9, 2019. For more information on how to migrate your add-ons, see <a href="https://developers.google.com/drive/api/v3/cws-migration" target="_blank">here for Drive developers</a> and <a

</b>This beta is now <b>closed</b> and will no longer be accepting new applicants.</span></i></div><h3 style="text-align: left;">What’s changing </h3>We’re launching a new beta that allows you to create shortcuts in Drive, making it easy to reference and organize files and folders outside of a given shared drive.<br /><br />We’ll begin accepting domains into this program in the coming weeks.<br /><h3 style="text-align: left;">Who’s impacted </h3>Admins and end users<br /><h3 style="text-align: left;"><br />Why you’d use it </h3>Shortcuts are pointers to files that are stored in another folder or in another drive—like a shared drive or another user’s drive—that make it easy to surface content without creating copies of files.<br /><br />For example, if Paul in marketing shares a document from his team’s shared drive with the entire sales team, Greta in sales can create a shortcut to that document in her own team’s shared drive. Previously, because documents can’t be owned by two shared drives, Greta would need to create a copy of the document for her team’s shared drive, which could then quickly become out of date.  <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEYygDirKZ5i6dFzK4NsxSyVy2Ko3tl9RAxh2kp7OHycro2oDuRx3C5YP6DvhHEsekcbaPoGc1vMznrwEIT2J26fT3gI_8l_OQRO9YvTYfLDHOiguyJ30CZvN_eCGOao2gvcJ1YpwbN5w/s1600/shortcuts-demo-acme.2019-08-13+09_57_01.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="868" data-original-width="1306" height="424" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEYygDirKZ5i6dFzK4NsxSyVy2Ko3tl9RAxh2kp7OHycro2oDuRx3C5YP6DvhHEsekcbaPoGc1vMznrwEIT2J26fT3gI_8l_OQRO9YvTYfLDHOiguyJ30CZvN_eCGOao2gvcJ1YpwbN5w/s640/shortcuts-demo-acme.2019-08-13+09_57_01.gif" width="640" /></a></div><br /><br />Additionally, the existing “Add to My Drive” option will be replaced with “Add shortcut to Drive”.

Note that when new coursework is set up within Assignments, you’ll need to click the checkbox to add originality reports to the assignment.<br /><br />While this feature is in beta, originality reports will only work for Google Docs and will only be available in English.<br /><h3 style="text-align: left;">Helpful links</h3><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><a href="https://support.google.com/edu/classroom/answer/9191110?hl=en&ref_topic=6024979">Learn more and sign up for the Originality Reports for Classroom beta</a></li><li><a href="https://edu.google.com/products/course-kit/?modal_active=none">Learn more and sign up for the Assignments beta</a></li><li><a href="https://support.google.com/edu/classroom/answer/9335819">Student Instructions: Originality reports for Classroom</a></li><li><a href="https://support.google.com/edu/coursekit/answer/9369384">Student Instructions: Originality reports for Assignments</a></li><li><a href="https://blog.google/outreach-initiatives/education/originality-reports">Keyword Blog: A new way to help students turn in their best work</a></li></ul><h3 style="text-align: left;">Availability</h3><b>G Suite editions</b><br /><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Available to G Suite for Education and G Suite Enterprise for Education</li><li>Not available to G Suite Basic, G Suite Business, G Suite Enterprise, and G Suite for Nonprofits</li></ul><br /><b>On/off by default?</b><br /><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Once accepted into the beta, originality reports are available to all Classroom users and can be turned on at the assignment level. </li><li>This feature is available to Assignments beta users automatically and turned on at the assignment level.</li></ul><div><br /></div><b>Stay up to date with G Suite launches</b><br /><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><a href="http://feedburner.google.com/fb/a/mailverify?uri=GoogleAppsUpdates&loc=en_US">Get G Suite product update alerts by email</a></li><li><a href="https://gsuite.google.com/whatsnew/calendar/">See the G Suite launch release calendar</a></li><li><a href="http://googleappsupdates.blogspot.com/atom.xml">Subscribe to the RSS feed of these updates</a></li></ul></div> <span itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://plus.google.com/116899029375914044550' itemprop='url'/> </span> </noscript> </div> </div> <div class='share'> <span class='gplus-share social-wrapper'> </span> <span class='twitter-custom social-wrapper' data-href='http://twitter.com/share?text=Google Workspace Updates:Originality reports for Google Classroom and Google Assignments launching to beta&url=http://workspaceupdates.googleblog.com/2019/08/originality-reports-edu.html&via=google'> <img alt='Share on Twitter' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_twitter_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='fb-custom social-wrapper' data-href='https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=http://workspaceupdates.googleblog.com/2019/08/originality-reports-edu.html'> <img alt='Share on Facebook' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_facebook_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='cmt_iframe_holder' data-href='http://workspaceupdates.googleblog.com/2019/08/originality-reports-edu.html' data-viewtype='FILTERED_POSTMOD'></div> <a href='https://plus.google.com/112374322230920073195' rel='author' style='display:none;'> Google </a> <div class='label-footer'> <span class='labels-caption'> Labels: </span> <span class='labels'> <a class='label' href='http://workspaceupdates.googleblog.com/search/label/Google%20Workspace%20for%20Education' rel='tag'> Google Workspace for Education </a> , <a class='label' href='http://workspaceupdates.googleblog.com/search/label/Other' rel='tag'> Other </a> </span> </div> </div> </div> <div class='post' data-id='3483943948809900040' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='http://workspaceupdates.googleblog.com/2019/08/see-list-of-gsuite-launches.html' itemprop='url' title='See a filterable, searchable list of the latest G Suite launches'> See a filterable, searchable list of the latest G Suite launches </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> Wednesday, August 14, 2019 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> <div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">We’ve just updated the<a href="https://support.google.com/a/table/7314896" target="_blank"> “What’s new in G Suite?” Help Center article</a> to include recent launches.

Simply open the jam on your computer, click “Open on a Jamboard,” then search by Jamboard name. To make this easier, we added the name of the Jamboard to the screensaver on Jamboard devices so it’s quick to open jams when you’re in sight of a Jamboard. See below for more details on how this works. </li><li>You can no longer share a Jam by creating a share-code from your computer.
