How to add MeetGeek to a meeting automatically
The first steps is to sync your calendar from your upcoming meetings page:
After connecting your calendar, you'll see the next 14 days of calls from your primary calendar.
MeetGeek syncs exclusively with your primary calendar, and alternative calendars cannot be added.
How will your notetaker join your meetings?
By default, MeetGeek automatically joins all your meetings based on the scheduled events in your Google/Outlook calendar that contain a valid conference link (Zoom, Google Meet, or Microsoft Teams).
Please be aware that MeetGeek does not support webinars.
The "Upcoming meetings" page of your MeetGeek account displays all your scheduled meetings that will be joined by the Notetaker.
However, you can customize the default settings and set your own rules for the MeetGeek to only join specific events. Let's review the available options:
1. Use the toggles to control whether MeetGeek should join you at each particular meeting or not.
2. You can control whether you’d like to record all scheduled events or just the meetings that you host. In the latter case, MeetGeek won't join meetings where you're only an invited participant, and those meetings won't be recorded.
3. Choose which conferencing software meetings to join by checking or unchecking the boxes under each listed conference platform.
With the automatic option, MeetGeek promptly joins your meetings at the scheduled time and uses the web conference link to connect to the call.
The host of the event needs to admit the Notetaker into the meeting room. Once admitted, MeetGeek starts recording the meeting.
