Share a link to a specific time in a Google Drive video
Google are adding new functionality to the Drive sharing button that lets you share timestamped links to specific parts of a video.
On web, simply navigate to drive.google.com > find and open a video file > play the video (you can pause the playback before performing the following steps) > select the dropdown on the “Share” button in the top-right corner > select “Copy link to this time” > send the link.

Introducing dropdown options on the sharing button in Google Docs, Sheets, Slides and Drawings
We’re adding a new feature that ensures a seamless sharing experience across Workspace. In Google Docs, Sheets, Slides and Drawings, you will now see a dropdown on the Share button that surfaces quick actions, such as pending access requests and the “Copy link” option.
Using functions in Connected Sheets for BigQuery
Today, Connected Sheets for BigQuery supports 23 Sheets functions, such as AVERAGE and XLOOKUP.
However, all of these functions behave somewhat differently than their native counterparts. Thus, to help Connected Sheets users write better functions, Google now display context-aware Help Center content in Sheets.
The ‘formula help’ shows descriptions for Connected Sheets functions when writing a formula that would query BigQuery, and otherwise shows descriptions of native Sheets functions.
Learn more about the XLOOKUP function.
