What KPIs show that Slides enhancements are actually improving document quality and time-to-finish?

To show that Google Docs enhancements are improving document quality and time-to-finish, you can track a combination of qualitative and quantitative KPIs. These metrics can be gathered using Google's own tools, such as the Activity Dashboard, alongside user surveys and document analytics.

For legal and compliance eDiscovery of content in Google Docs across shared drives, legal and IT teams use Google Vault, Google's native eDiscovery and information governance tool. A structured process is followed to ensure relevant content is identified, preserved, and collected.

For Google Docs, AI features like Help me write and summarization can be restricted to approved data domains through several governance controls in the Google Admin console. These controls, which apply to Drive-related services, include Data Loss Prevention (DLP) rules, Organizational Unit (OU) settings, Client-Side Encryption (CSE), and file-specific permissions.

You cannot perform eDiscovery on Gmail content within shared drives, because Gmail data and Google Drive data are fundamentally different in Google Workspace. Email messages are archived in a separate service from files, so they cannot be found through a search of Shared Drives. However, you can use Google Vault to search both data types separately within the same eDiscovery case.

Within Google Workspace, administrators can restrict AI features to approved data domains and control user access using a combination of security settings and governance tools in the Google Admin console. Key controls include app access management, Data Loss Prevention (DLP) rules, and Assured Controls.
