We recently made it possible to embed webpages as iframes in the new Google Sites. With this launch, we’re giving you one more tool to customize your sites—you can now embed HTML and JavaScript code directly into your sites.


To get started, select Embed from the Insert menu and choose Embed Code. For more details, visit the Help Center.

Update (April 5, 2018):

The Google Photos tab has now been removed from the left-hand navigation in Drive. Please see the blog post below for more information.

---

Today in Google Drive you can view your Google Photos directly via a tab in the left navigation and from folders within My Drive.



In early January 2018, we will simplify Drive navigation by removing the Google Photos tab. You can continue to access your photos and videos in Drive by creating a Google Photos folder in My Drive. Learn more in the Help Center.



You can still access your photos and videos in Google Photos on the web, Android, and iOS.

We’re making two changes in the Admin console to improve the visibility of reports for specific G Suite apps.

First, we’re renaming “Aggregate reports” to “Apps.”

Second, we’re moving all of the app-specific reports previously nested under Reports > Aggregate reports to the left-side navigation. These will appear beneath an expandable arrow and be organized in three subsections under Reports: “Apps,” “Devices,” and “Users.” All of the previous user-level reports will now be nested under the “Users” subsection of reports. This change will allow you to jump right into these reports from the main reports page in the Admin console and bring a clear categorization to individual reports.

Both of these changes can be found by navigating to Reports > Apps in the Admin console.

With Single-Sign-On (SSO), users can access all of their enterprise cloud applications—including the Admin console for admins—after signing in just one time. Google supports the two most popular enterprise SSO standards, OpenID Connect and SAML, and there are more than 800 applications with pre-integrated SSO support in our third-party apps catalog already.

We’re now adding SAML integration for 9 additional applications: Dashlane, Docebo, Front, InVision, IT Glue, Pivotal Tracker, Sumo Logic, SurveyMonkey and Zoom. 

You can find our full list of pre-integrated applications, as well as instructions for installing them, in the Help Center.

Note that apart from the pre-integrated SAML applications, G Suite also supports installing “Custom SAML Applications,” which means that admins can install any third-party application that supports SAML. The advantage of a pre-integrated app is that the installation is much easier. You can learn more about installing Custom SAML Applications in this Help Center article.
