Get more insight into how Chat apps are used within your organization

What’s changing
Google Workspace admins can now get better insights into how Chat apps are being used within their organization via enhanced logging and display of log information. Specifically, we are enhancing Chat event logs to add Chat app related events. Using these logs, admins can gain insights such as:

• Which Chat apps have been added to what Spaces
• What apps have been added in a specific space
• What apps have been removed, and who removed them
• What are the most popular chat apps within your organization

Getting started
Admins:
Logs will be collected by default. Admins can see the logging information:

• Via BigQuery log export and subsequent queries / data visualizations
• Via the Reports API
• Coming soon, the logs will also be available in the Security Investigation Tool (SIT)

Use our Help Center to learn more about allowing users to install Chat apps, or using Chat log events
End users:

• No end user impact.

Rollout pace
