View richer information about colleagues and stakeholders using people chips in Google Sheets
You can now add people chips directly into a Google Sheet. These chips allow you to quickly view more information about colleagues or contacts, including their location, job title, and contact information. You can also take actions such as booking a meeting, starting a Chat, sending an email, and more, directly from a smart chip. This feature is already available for Google Docs.
To insert a people chip, type “@” in any cell to search your directory or by selecting Insert > People chip.
