Recently announced at the Cloud Next 2024 event, Google Chat now features integration with IFTTT (If This, Then That), opening up a world of automation possibilities.

This new feature will allow users to connect Google Chat to an impressive offering of over 1,000 popular apps, streamlining workflows and increasing efficiency.

While the focus is primarily on teams and business users, Google hasn’t forgotten about its individual users. Personal Google account holders can also take advantage of this powerful automation tool, adding a touch of workplace efficiency to their personal communications.

The IFTTT integration isn’t limited to just Chat. Google Workspace users will be happy to know that other services in the suite, like Drive and Calendar, are already available on the IFTTT platform. Expanding this to include Chat further solidifies Google’s commitment to creating a seamlessly connected digital ecosystem.
