Google Calendar

Connect your calendar so meetings know their event, attendees and series.

Updated 2026-10-20 View as markdown

Connected to Google Calendar, meaty matches each recording to the event it belongs to. That gives the meeting its attendees (which helps name speakers), shows the event name, and groups recurring meetings into a series.

Connect

  1. In the web or desktop app, open Integrations → Google Calendar.
  2. Google's consent screen opens. Allow meaty to read your calendar. To be confirmed
  3. You're back in meaty, connected.

Calendar access is separate from signing in with Google: you can sign in with Google without connecting the calendar, and the other way round.

meaty's access is read-only. It never creates, changes or deletes events.

Choose calendars

At first, only your primary calendar is used. Add others under Manage calendars.

How a recording is matched

meaty picks the event that overlaps the recording most, allowing five minutes either side. When two events tie, the one with invitees wins. All-day, cancelled and declined events are skipped.

A matched meeting keeps the event's name, time, invitees and whether it recurs. meaty's own title for the meeting stays; the event name shows underneath it.

No match, or the wrong one? Open the meeting and link the right event — meaty offers events within 12 hours of the recording. This works on every surface.

Disconnect

Disconnecting revokes meaty's access at Google. Meetings already matched keep their event details.
