Google Workspace Changes

Admins can now convert client-side encrypted Google Sheets into Microsoft Excel files after Vault or Takeout exports.

Client-side encryption now offers full support for converting decrypted Google Sheets into Microsoft Excel files after an export using Google Vault or the data export tool (Takeout). This new conversion tool allows customers to maintain ownership, access, and perform analysis of sensitive data by enabling administrators to convert previously client-side encrypted content into a more widely compatible format.
