Update Summary

July 1, 2026 Google Cloud updates include BigQuery ML forecasting from Connected Sheets, Google SecOps Security Tokens, expanded Advanced BigQuery Export, Proofpoint Email Protection v8.0 actions, and Looker release channels. Looker deployment begins with version 26.10 across Rapid, Regular, and No Channel.

Update Details

Security

  • Google SecOps Security Tokens meter agentic consumption for generally available security agents; preview agents and standard assistive features do not consume tokens.
  • Advanced BigQuery Export adds VPC Service Controls, CMEK, Data Residency, and customer-facing audit logs via Access Transparency.

Bug Fixes

  • Advanced BigQuery Export now uses Fine-Grained DML merges to keep exported data deduplicated without custom SQL routines.
  • Proofpoint Email Protection v8.0 updates backend script implementation for the Enrich Entities and Ping actions.

New Features

  • BigQuery ML now supports pre-trained TimesFM models directly from Connected Sheets using AI.FORECAST and AI.DETECT_ANOMALIES.
  • Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform now allows up to seven pending Google model orders for the same model and region.
  • Advanced BigQuery Export now supports Entity Graph and Ingestion Metrics exports.
  • Advanced BigQuery Export adds enum mapping tables for translating numerical values to human-readable strings.
  • Proofpoint Email Protection v8.0 adds Search Quarantined Emails, Delete Quarantined Email, Resubmit Quarantined Email, and Move Quarantined Email actions.
  • Looker (Google Cloud core) release channels are now in preview: Rapid, Regular, and No Channel.

Hints

  • Advanced BigQuery Export is in Public Preview, available only to Google SecOps Enterprise Plus customers, and must be enabled on request.
  • During the preview migration, data is exported to the new BigQuery tenant project in addition to the existing Google-managed BigQuery project until the old pipeline is disabled.
  • Looker Rapid channel provides early access but is excluded from the SLA; Regular channel offers balanced stability with an optional Accelerated Security Patching flag.
  • Security Tokens roll out across all regions starting July 1.
