Add and remove a large group of members in your spaces conveniently.
Spaces in Google Chat helps you communicate with a group of people or an organization about a topic, task, or shared interest. It provides an effective way to collaborate on projects, brainstorm ideas, share files, assign tasks or stay connected with your team members.
Early 2023, Google enabled New Abilities for Chat Space’s Managers, it can customize selection of many features from “Space Settings” including: member management, space configuration, conversation moderation, and create announcement. Now Google introduces the new ability for space managers or users with the permission to manage members to add Google Groups to a Space.

Space managers who have the permission to manage Google Groups will now be able to add groups to their spaces. After proceeding, the group members are automatically added to a space. Incase of any changes such as adding and removing members, it is also automatically reflected in the space. In other words, this latest feature continuously syncs membership from Groups to Chat, enhancing membership management, especially adding or removing a large number of members, much easier than before.
However, memberships updated from Groups to Chat, if there are any changes to the space membership, it will not be effected in the group members list. Besides, some groups and their members might not be visible to all members in the space as group member visibility in spaces. So that will respect the group’s member visibility settings set in Google Groups. Along with the latest update, it gets rid of manual data input. Next time, when you want to add or remove a large group of members in your spaces, we recommend you to try this feature.
