Google Docs gets a new email draft template following the latest update. The new feature in Google Docs will simplify collaborating on an email draft. It will enable users to draft emails via Google Doc draft template and then export them to Gmail.

The tech brand launched it as part of the Smart Canvas push that brought the ‘@menu’ into Google Docs allowing users to easily insert data and details from other Google Services. As for the new feature, Google Doc users can now collaborate with other team members while drafting an email. The email draft template can be accessed by entering “@email” in a Google Doc that will show up a template that includes To, Cc, Bcc, and Subject. Once the email is ready to send, you can just click the Gmail icon on the left. Here’s how to get started-
