Create a New Chat Space in Google Chat
Multiple people can chat in a single group chat called a space.
You can update your chat spaces’ notifications settings at any time.
Make sure to visit the general settings if you’re looking for other notifications-related settings, such as hearing the notification sound.
In Google Chat https://chat.google.com, if you’re looking at the chat space full-screen, click its name on top. Then select Notifications.
If you have minimized the chat space, click the three dots icon on its top right and select Notifications.
Notify always – Get notifications and a notification dot on the left for all messages.
Notify less – Get notifications and a notification dot on the left when you get mentioned, there’s a message in a thread you follow, or someone uses “@all.”
For chat spaces with threads: To receive a notification when someone starts a new thread, check the box next to “Also notify for the first message of new threads.”
Notifications off – no notifications, but you see the notification dot when mentioned.
