Insert images from Google Search in Google Slides

This is the easiest way to find and insert an image in Google Slides. No need to open a new tab and search for the perfect image. The “Explore” feature in Google Slides gives you access to the billions of images indexed by Google Image Search. Here’s how to find and insert images in Google Slides: Click the Explore button from the right bottom corner. Search for something and then click on the Images tab. Click the plus sign or simply drag the image into your slide. Resize and position the image to fit your slide. Job done! And you’ve done it all without leaving your presentation.
Find and merge duplicates in Google Contacts

Google Contacts is the place where Google Workspace users can store and organize contacts. Although duplicates are a common occurrence, especially when working with a large list of contacts, it’s important to keep the situation under control to avoid confusion and make sure they don’t count towards your Google Contacts limit (25,000 contacts). Here are two ways to deal with duplicates in Google Contacts: Use the “Merge & fix” feature. Open Google Contacts and click Merge & fix from the left sidebar. Using an algorithm, Google Contacts will suggest merging any possible duplicates. Review them before approving the merge. Once you have dismissed an action to a specific group of duplicate contacts, this group will always be ignored by the Merge & fix algorithm. Merge duplicates manually Sometimes the Merge & fix feature overlooks duplicates. In this case, you can manually merge any duplicates in Google Contacts. Once you’ve found one, select the duplicates and click the merge icon from the menu bar. You can select two or more contacts to merge. You can also undo any merge action by clicking the Undo button from the bottom of the page or by clicking the cog icon (top right) > Undo changes. If you want to do more with Google Contacts and Gmail, check out the powerful Shared Contacts app.
How to check when your Google Meet codes expire

If you use Google Meet frequently within your organization, it’s a good idea to be aware of when your meeting links/codes expire. Whether you schedule your meetings in Google Calendar, Gmail or Chat here’s a breakdown of when meeting codes or links will expire based on the app used to generate them. Google Calendar A meeting code or link will expire after it hasn’t been used for a year and it’s no longer associated with any future calendar events. If a code is created in another product (such as Gmail or Chat) and then added to a Calendar invite, the code will expire depending on the app it was generated from. Gmail, Google Chat and Google Meet homepage Meeting codes will expire 365 days after last use. Breakout Rooms These codes expire instantly once the main meeting ends. Jamboard and Meeting room hardware The code expires immediately once all users leave the meeting. Nicknamed meetings (Google Workspace subscribers only) A meeting code expires instantly after all participants leave the meeting. Google Classroom A Google Classroom meeting code expires instantly once all users have left the meeting. Other Third Party Applications Meeting codes expire 365 days after last use. If someone uses a code within this 365-day window, it will add another 365 days to the expiration date. Google Nest Any meeting code generated by speaking into your Nest device and saying “Hey, Google start a meeting” will expire once a year has passed since its last use. For users in the Google Workspace with Google Assistant Beta, any meeting generated using meeting nicknames will expire immediately after the last participant leaves the meeting.
