To start a group conversation with multiple people:
Click on the + to the right of the Chat header on the left-hand side of the screen
Choose Start group converstaion
Type the name of the first person for the group, or choose their name in the list of suggestions. Add each other group member as required.

You can now type your message to all people in the group, and send files as required. If you share a file from Google Drive, everyone included in the group conversation will automatically be given view and comment access to the file.
If you’ve been included in a group message, you can leave the group if you wish to hide it from the left-hand side of the screen. To do this, position the mouse over the conversation, click on the ellipses, then choose Leave.
Click on Leave Space to confirm you want to close the conversation and no longer receive notifications of any new messages in the conversation.
