Google has recently added a new Activity feed to its Drive on the web. This page is particularly helpful for users who have to perform a lot of file-related actions. To be mentioned, this new activity feed is rolling gradually and will be available for all Google Workspace customers in the coming weeks.
The activity feed in Google Drive will let you access all your pending access requests, recent comments, and approvals more accurately. It also allows quick glance at recent file activity and then takes action directly on the page. In the feed, the file name appears in the left column, and the activity of the file is just next to it.
The activity feed is further split into different sections such as Access requests, Approvals, Recent comments, and more. On the right side, you will see a blue button that will allow you to Manage or grant) access, Review, and Open comments.
However, the comments section spans 30 days, and items will appear if you are 1) subscribed to notifications, 2) participating in the specific comment thread, or 3) mentioned in a comment within that file. This is a standalone page that will appear in the sidebar between Priority and Workspaces.
