We recommend Google Chat, a Google service available in your Drew Google account, for conversations with your coworkers.
Chat will only work with a Google Workspace account. Make sure you are only logged in to your Drew account in the browser you are using. |
Google instructions: Send a direct message
Messages can be sent from the web or in the app.
The next time you want to message someone you've spoken to recently, you will find them listed as a recent contact in the menu to the left (on the web), or in the People section of the app.
Google instructions: Create a space
Spaces are places for multiple people to be involved in conversation. They are typically used for long-term chats, and are searchable.
Spaces can be created and participated in from the web or the app.
Chat notifications can be a bit tricky. To see what works best for your use of Chat, be it on a computer, on a mobile device, or a mix, review your notification options here and some troubleshooting tips here.
You can also snooze notifications.
