Using Zoom's Summary AI in Hive Note

*This feature is currently under development and will be available soon!

With Zoom's Meeting Summary AI, users can now utilize this feature to have the AI create a Quick Recap, generate Next Steps as actions, and quickly draft a Summary of the meeting!

  1. Create a Meeting in your Calendar (Google Calendar or Microsoft Calendar).

  2. Make sure the conference meeting detail is a Zoom Meeting.
    *You may need to integrate Zoom with your calendar provider

  3. Create a Note in Hive and make sure the Note is linked to the Calendar Event.

  4. Once the calendar event is linked to the note, you should see the event details under the note title.

  5. You can conduct your meeting as normal and once you complete the Meeting, Zoom's Meeting Summary AI should populate the note.

Troubleshooting:

Someone else in the meeting can't see my note.

If users are unable to see a note, first make sure that you've shared the note with them. You can view shared users as well as share with new users by clicking on the 'Share' button in the top left of your note. There you will see a list of users who currently have access to your note. If the user in question in not on the list, you can invite them by typing in their name or email address in the 'Invite' input. Once you add their email, click 'Add' to share the note with them.
