# Recordings

> How meeting recordings from Zoom, Google Meet, Gong, and Granola attach to your 1:1s in Windmill so Windy can surface transcripts, summaries, and action items.

When your 1:1 is recorded on a connected platform, Windmill automatically attaches the transcript — and in some cases the notes — to the 1:1 in Windmill. You can review what was said, ask Windy for a summary, and reference the conversation when preparing for the next meeting.

## Supported sources

Windmill pulls recordings from the platforms you connect. See the canonical [source matrix in Meetings and Recordings](/data/meetings-and-recordings#supported-sources-at-a-glance) for what each source contributes.

* **Zoom** — Cloud recordings synced directly from your connected account
* **Google Meet** — Native recording or Gemini Notes (with transcript enabled)
* **Gong** — Transcripts and AI summaries (short summary, key points, action items) from public Gong calls
* **Granola** — Notes and transcripts from recordings you have access to in Granola
* **Roam** — Meeting recordings and transcripts

Only transcripts (and, where the source provides them, notes/summaries) are stored in Windmill. Audio and video files stay on the original platform.

## Does Windy join as a notetaker?

No. Windy never joins 1:1 meetings as a notetaker, and Windmill does not add Windy as a participant to calendar events.

Windmill can still use meeting context when you connect a supported recording source. If a transcript or note from Zoom, Google Meet, Gong, Granola, or Roam is available, Windmill can attach it to the 1:1 after the meeting.

## Timing

Recordings sync **hourly** from every platform. A meeting that ends at 10:00 AM may not show up on the 1:1 in Windmill until around 11:00 AM.

<Tip>
  If a recording doesn't appear after an hour, check that transcripts were enabled on the meeting itself. On Google Meet in particular, **"Also start a transcript"** (or **"Also start transcription"**) must be turned on for Windmill to receive anything.

## Who can see a recording

Windmill respects the access controls of the source platform.

* Verified participants of the meeting can view the transcript on the 1:1.
* Managers with subtree visibility can view transcripts of 1:1s within their reporting chain when they have access to the meeting on the source platform.
* For Granola, Windmill limits visibility to identities it can confirm have access in Granola.
* For Gong, only **public** calls are synced — private recordings are never imported.

## Using recordings in the 1:1 flow

Once a recording is attached, you can:

* **Review the transcript** directly on the 1:1 page.
* **Ask Windy for a summary** or for specific action items from the conversation.
* **Catch up before the next meeting** — past recordings feed the [Catch Me Up panel](/features/1-on-1s/catch-me-up) and Suggested Topics.
* **Search across past 1:1s** by asking Windy in Slack (for example, "What did I talk about with Jordan last time?").
