Changes to information visibility in Meet quality tool, Meet audit log, and Reports API

Quick launch summary

We’re updating how information is displayed in the Meet quality tool, Meet audit log, and Reports API. This makes it easier for admins to follow up on calls hosted within their domains, as all three tools will use the same identifiers for external participants.

For in-domain users, admins will get access to richer information, including a user's country and IP address, and the email address of the meeting organizer. This will allow them to perform certain tasks, like troubleshooting a user connection or following up an abuse report.

For calls hosted in external domains, we’ve improved how these tools obscure or entirely hide participant information, creating consistency and better protecting external participant information.
