Turning off less secure app access to G Suite accounts - Impact to Email
Limiting the ability for less secure apps (LSAs) to access G Suite account data. If you are using stand-alone Outlook 2016 or earlier, you can use G Suite Sync for Microsoft Outlook. Alternatively, move to Office 365 (or Outlook 2019), which support OAuth access. If you are using Thunderbird or another email client, re-add your Google Account and configure it to use IMAP with OAuth. If you are using the mail app on iOS or MacOS, or Outlook for Mac, and use only a password to login, you’ll need to remove and re-add your account. When you add it back, make sure to choose Google as the account type to automatically use OAuth.

Propose a new meeting time or add a note to Calendar invites directly from Gmail.
When opening a Google Calendar invite in Gmail on the web, users will now see a 'More Options' dropdown menu. This menu allows users to propose a new time for the meeting or add a note to their RSVP, which will then open the respective event section in Google Calendar for the user to make the updates directly.
