You can use everyday words to describe what you want to find with Google Cloud Search. For example, you can search for “sheets from Umzuzu last week” to find a spreadsheet I shared with you a week ago.

Cloud Search brings the best of Google Search and machine intelligence to G Suite. It provides both comprehensive search and proactive recommendations to help you throughout your day.

What can I ask Google Cloud Search?

Ask about events

  • My agenda tomorrow
  • My next meeting

Ask about content

  • Mail from Umzuzu
  • Docs owned by Umzuzu

Ask about people

  • A coworker’s phone number
  • Who is a coworker’s manager
  • Coworker’s email address
