Another casualty. Just got this in email to the admin address of one of my G Suite domains:

Hello Administrator,
We are reaching out to people who may have customized their Google Voice incoming call rules based on Google+ Circles. In light of the upcoming changes to Google+ and in the interests of our adopters, we will be removing call routing rules based on Google+ Circles on March 4 2019. From our analysis it appears that users in your domain have created custom call routing rules based on Google+ Circles.
What does this mean for my organization?
After March 2019, incoming calls to Google Voice phone numbers used by members of your organization will not follow any settings they may have had for callers in Google+ Circles. All other call routing rules, such as those based on members’ Google Contacts, will remain intact.
What actions do I need to take?
We recommend reaching out to the affected users and informing them of this update. Google Voice is not currently included in the core services for support and all configuration changes must be made by the users themselves.
We’re here to help
If you have additional questions or need assistance, please contact Google support. When you call or submit your support case, reference issue number.
Sincerely,
The G Suite Team

(Might want to remove that reference numberas well Brian Holt Hawthorne :))
ReplyDeleteSince Voice still seems to be a US-only service, I'm not affected, but thanks for sharing! It's interesting to see what G+ integrations were stil left in other services.
Filip H.F. Slagter Thanks. Edited to remove the reference number.
