# Zoom

> Lindy joins your Zoom meetings, records them, and delivers summaries with decisions and action items

## Overview

Lindy joins your Zoom meetings, records them, and delivers a summary with decisions and action items afterwards.

With the Zoom integration, Lindy can:

* **Join your Zoom meetings automatically** based on your connected calendar
* **Record and transcribe** the full conversation
* **Deliver summaries** with key decisions, action items, and highlights
* **Send follow-up emails** to attendees with a summary and next steps

## Prerequisites

You'll need:

* A [Lindy account](https://lindy.ai) (free or paid plan)
* A connected calendar (Google Calendar or Microsoft Outlook) in Lindy
* Zoom meetings with a join link on your calendar events

## Adding the Zoom Integration

<Steps>
  <Step title="Sign in to Lindy">
    Go to [chat.lindy.ai](https://chat.lindy.ai) and sign in to your Lindy account. If you don't have one yet, create a free account.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Connect your calendar">
    In your Lindy settings, connect your Google Calendar or Microsoft Outlook calendar. Lindy uses your calendar to detect upcoming Zoom meetings.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enable meeting recording">
    In the settings panel, find **Meeting recording** and toggle it on.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose which meetings to record">
    Select your recording scope:

    * **All meetings**: Lindy joins every meeting on your calendar
    * **External only**: record client and prospect calls, skip internal syncs
    * **Specific meetings**: choose exactly which meetings Lindy should join

    Lindy detects the Zoom link on your calendar events and joins at the scheduled time. Nothing to configure on the Zoom side.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Tip>
  If you only want Lindy to join certain meetings, start with **External only** or **Specific meetings** and expand from there.
</Tip>

## How Lindy Works with Zoom

Here's what happens for each meeting:

1. **Before the meeting**: Lindy detects the Zoom link on your calendar event and prepares to join.
2. **During the meeting**: Lindy joins the call as **Lindy Meeting Notetaker**, a visible participant. It records and transcribes the conversation as it happens.
3. **After the meeting**: Lindy generates a structured summary and sends it to your inbox with a link to the full recording and transcript.

<Note>
  Lindy joins as a visible participant named "Lindy Meeting Notetaker" so everyone on the call knows it's being recorded.
</Note>

### Meeting Summaries

Each summary includes:

* **High-level summary**: the top bullet points covering key outcomes
* **Detailed notes**: in-depth coverage of the full discussion
* **Action items**: who needs to do what, with clear ownership
* **Full transcript**: searchable, timestamped transcript of the entire meeting
* **Recording link**: direct link to replay the meeting

You can customize the summary format, tone, and level of detail in your Lindy settings under **Summarization Instructions**.

### Searching Past Meetings

All meetings are saved to your Lindy dashboard. You can:

* Search across all meetings by keyword, person, or topic
* Ask Lindy about any past meeting in plain language (e.g., "What did we decide in last week's Zoom with Sarah?")
* Access full transcripts and recordings at any time

### Follow-Up Emails

Lindy can send follow-up emails after each meeting with a summary and action items. You choose who gets them:

* **All participants**: everyone on the invite
* **Internal only**: just your team
* **Specific people**: customize per your preferences

## What Data Lindy Accesses

Lindy's meeting bot joins as a participant and accesses only what is available during the call:

| Data                  | How it's used                                        |
| --------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------- |
| **Meeting audio**     | Transcription and summary generation                 |
| **Participant names** | Displayed in summaries and used for follow-ups       |
| **Meeting metadata**  | Title, time, and duration (from your calendar event) |

Lindy does **not** access:

* Your Zoom account, settings, or billing information
* Zoom chat messages
* Meetings you have not opted in to record
* Screen shares or shared files
* Any Zoom data outside of the meetings Lindy joins

All data is processed securely and stored in accordance with Lindy's [security policies](/resources/security).

## Removing the Integration

You can stop Lindy from joining your Zoom meetings at any time:

* **Turn off meeting recording**: Go to your settings at [chat.lindy.ai](https://chat.lindy.ai), find **Meeting recording**, and toggle it off. Lindy stops joining new meetings immediately.
* **Tell Lindy to stop**: You can also just tell Lindy to stop joining specific meetings or all meetings.

### What happens to your data

* Existing recordings, transcripts, and summaries stay in your Lindy dashboard
* You can delete individual meetings or your entire history from the dashboard at any time
* Once recording is off, Lindy stops collecting any new data from your Zoom meetings

## Troubleshooting

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Lindy didn't join my Zoom meeting">
    * Confirm your calendar is connected in Lindy settings
    * Check that meeting recording is toggled on
    * Verify the calendar event contains a valid Zoom meeting link (e.g., `https://zoom.us/j/...`)
    * If using **Specific meetings** mode, confirm you selected this meeting for recording
    * Make sure the meeting wasn't cancelled or rescheduled after Lindy checked your calendar
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="I don't see a summary after the meeting">
    * Summaries are typically delivered within a few minutes after the meeting ends
    * Check your email inbox, including spam and promotions folders
    * For longer meetings (90+ minutes), processing may take slightly longer
    * Verify that Lindy successfully joined the meeting (check your Lindy dashboard)
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Participants see 'Lindy Meeting Notetaker' joining">
    That's by design. Lindy shows up as a named participant so everyone on the call knows it's being recorded.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Recording quality issues">
    * Lindy records audio from the Zoom call directly, so audio quality depends on participants' connections
    * If transcription seems inaccurate, check that participants have clear audio and minimal background noise
    * Summaries are generated from the transcript, so clearer audio produces better results
  </Accordion>
