Posted by Joël Kalmanowicz, Product Manager, Google Apps Team If you're a Google Apps for Business, Government or Education customer, today we're releasing a few new features designed to make it even easier for you to get things done with Google+. Over the next few days new business-focused features for the Google+ app on Android and general availability of the Google+ Domains API will be rolling out.
Share with coworkers on the goFirst, the Google+ app on Android now supports multiple accounts, so you can log in to both a personal and a work account, and easily switch between them as you can in other apps such as Gmail.
Next, you can now create
restricted posts from the Google+ app on Android. Restricted posts can’t be shared outside your organization, so your private conversations are only visible to your coworkers.
Finally, new
domain labels in both the mobile app and on the web help you quickly identify your coworkers’ profiles so you’re connecting and sharing with the right people.
Develop business apps that integrate with Google+At Google I/O in May we
announced a limited preview of the Google+ Domains API. Starting today the Google+ Domains API is available to all Google Apps customers. The API allows Apps customers to integrate Google+ into their existing tools and processes, and allows enterprise software vendors to access Google+ from their products.
For example
Ocado, a Google Apps customer, is using the Google+ Domains API to sync Active Directory teams with employees’ circles. This will ensure that every employee always has an up-to-date circle containing all the other members of their team.
Cloudlock, an enterprise software vendor in the Google Apps Marketplace, is using the Google+ Domains API to add support for Google+ to its suite of data loss prevention, governance and compliance applications.
Learn more about the Google+ Domains API on the
Google Apps Developer Blog and read the documentation on the
Google+ developers site.
These changes will be rolling out to Google Apps customers over the next several days. To use the new mobile features, download the Google+ app from the
Google Play Store. Stay tuned for more Google+ features built for businesses.
