Google Workspace Transfer Data Alerts

Incident Report for Brown University

Monitoring

Some customers might be seeing banners in Gmail or other Google apps promoting the ability to transfer data to personal accounts if you are 'Graduating Soon'.

These prompts are for informational purposes. In general, no action is required to maintain your account, data access, or current services.

If you are graduating soon, congratulations! The Transfer Content feature can help you migrate your content from the Brown Google environment to a personal Google account, to prepare for your transition to our alumni community.
