Google added programmatic comment support to the Docs, Sheets, and Slides APIs. The Docs API also gained support for suggested edits. Developers can now add, review, and reply to comments in all three apps. They can also submit proposed text changes as suggestions in Docs. The rollout starts on September 30, 2026. It will take up to 15 days to reach all users. MCP server support for programmatic comments remains in developer preview. The feature is available to all Google Workspace customers and personal account users.
