Google My Business Opens up Google Post API for Bulk Updating During COVID-19 so that chain businesses with multiple locations can bulk update COVID-19 related posts . You can get more info about how to use the API from here. Google is very specific on what it can be used for: To help Chain businesses share timely updates at scale, Local Posts via the GMB API will be available for a limited time. Local Posts made by Chains may only be used to report updates relevant to COVID-19.

Another change they announced was the new highlight dining options attributes for restaurants. To help food business owners communicate their dining options to customers, Google is introducing new dining attributes. Currently, restaurant merchants can add or edit their Business Profile to include “Dine-in,” “Takeout,” and “Delivery,” and in the coming weeks “Curbside pickup” can be added to their Business profile. API info and more info on adding or editing attributes.
