Email alerts for Admins

Admins can now elect to receive customizable email alerts when certain events of interest occur. By subscribing to alerts, admins can stay informed and, when needed, take prompt corrective action. These alerts are also helpful when multiple admins work together and want to stay informed on these changes.

User Alerts: Generated when our systems detect suspicious or unusual login events as well as on user-level administrator actions such as additions, deletions or suspensions. Real-time alerts allow admins to review the changes and take corrective action.

Settings Alerts: These alerts are automatically generated when any change by administrators to applications, device management or service settings is detected.

These alerts are available in the Admin console under Reports > Alerts and will be OFF by default. For privacy and compliance reasons, Google Support will not be able to perform further investigation for a given alert. Admins can use the Email Audit and Admin Audit APIs to retrieve more information.

New URL and multiple account sign-in for the Admin console

Get to the Admin console more easily with the new, simplified URL (admin.google.com). The admin console now supports multiple sign-in, so admins who manage multiple domains can quickly switch between accounts.

Note: The old Admin console URL (www.google.com/a/) will automatically redirect to the standard Google login page. When non-admin users from domains that use SSO try to login, they will be automatically redirected to their SSO login page.

Full screen option in the new Gmail compose experience

A full screen option has now been enabled in the new Gmail compose experience for Rapid release domains. Scheduled release domains will have this feature on August 6th, 2013. To try it out:

  1. Click Compose.
  2. Click the double-arrow icon at the top right of the compose window.
  3. Enjoy a larger composition mode that displays all of the formatting options by default.

If you want to make this option your default view, click into the options menu at the bottom right corner of compose and choose “Default to full-screen.” The next time you click Compose, you’ll be sent to this mode. Both types of compose can be minimized by clicking the black bar at the top.
