Community feature updates in December
The Community Team continues to work hard to improve our Community based on your valuable feedback. Here are some recent updates to our Community features:
1. We've created a new space in the Community dedicated to the Google Workspace Referral Program. This is where you can ask questions, share tips, and find resources on how to earn rewards for recommending Google Workspace.
Previously, these conversations took place in the Workspace Discussions forum board with the labels, "Referral Program" and "Affiliate Program." Any existing posts with those labels have been migrated to the new space of the Community so you can still refer to those discussions.
Check out the new space! And if you're not yet familiar with the Google Workspace Referral Program, learn all about it in this post from the team here.
2. We've added a new "Attending Events" feature for Community-hosted events so you can save your spot for an event in one click. With the "Send Invite" button, you can also easily send an invite for your peers or teammates to join as well. Below is a screenshot of a sample event with the new feature:
Please note that this feature will only apply to events hosted by the Google Workspace Community team. For Workspace events that are hosted outside the Community, you will still need to register for each event according to their respective forms or processes as you would normally.
Check out upcoming Google Workspace events and subscribe to the board to stay up to date!
We hope you enjoy our new feature updates and thank you to all our Community members who continue to make this space an engaging and informative place to be. If you have any feedback, please feel free to add your thoughts to the Community Feedback forum here or add a comment directly to this post.
