## Summary

Google released a new add-on called Workday for Google Sheets, which connects Workday Adaptive Planning directly to Sheets and Slides. This integration uses the AI-powered "Ask Workday" feature to eliminate manual CSV downloads for financial analysis. The update is available in the Google Workspace Marketplace.

In Google Docs, users can now ground AI prompts in existing sources from Gemini Notebook. This feature allows drafts to be based on a curated knowledge base without switching tabs or copy-pasting. It builds on the Workspace Intelligence foundation to bridge research and content creation.

Google Vids now supports Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash for higher quality video extension and 1080p upscaling.
