While automatic note-taking can save time and capture important details, not every meeting requires transcription or summaries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Enabling the notetaker for client calls, discovery meetings, or important internal discussions can help preserve key insights and action items, while leaving it off for quick check-ins or sensitive conversations. Being intentional about when the notetaker joins helps maintain privacy, reduce unnecessary recordings, and keep notes focused on the meetings that matter most.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Under Notetaker &gt; Settings you will find default settings for when Notetaker Joins your Meetings<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"650\" src=\"https:\/\/www.greminders.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/notetaker-settings-join-1024x650.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10694\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.greminders.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/notetaker-settings-join-1024x650.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.greminders.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/notetaker-settings-join-300x190.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.greminders.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/notetaker-settings-join-768x487.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.greminders.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/notetaker-settings-join.jpg 1414w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Here you can also specify if you want Notetaker to join your calls early.  0-10 minutes early.   Please note if you have a waiting room, Notetaker will wait in the waiting room for up to 10 minutes (if you don&#8217;t let it in), before it times out  and leaves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Note: IF you have more than one calendar connected, it is a good idea to review WHICH Calendar should auto join.    This setting is under Manage Calendar, make sure Notetaker has a checkbox.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/www.greminders.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/manage-calendar-join-notetaker-1024x427.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10604\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.greminders.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/manage-calendar-join-notetaker-1024x427.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.greminders.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/manage-calendar-join-notetaker-300x125.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.greminders.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/manage-calendar-join-notetaker-768x320.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.greminders.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/manage-calendar-join-notetaker.jpg 1398w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Then when you are looking at your My Events page you will see which meetings it has selected to auto join.   Only Web Meetings (Zoom, MS Teams, etc&#8230;) are eligible for auto joining.   All other meetings such as in person require manual start OR VOIP Calls can be configured within your VOIP provider settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"664\" src=\"https:\/\/www.greminders.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/auto-join-meetings-1024x664.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10603\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.greminders.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/auto-join-meetings-1024x664.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.greminders.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/auto-join-meetings-300x195.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.greminders.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/auto-join-meetings-768x498.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.greminders.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/auto-join-meetings.jpg 1411w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If you do not want Notetaker to join a call automatically simply toggle the switch on the right.   This will prevent Notetaker from joining those calls you want to exclude. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Note: If you toggle a event OFF (to not join), we will also toggle any other internal participants with the same setting.    <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember, by default we deduplicate notetaker where there is more than one internal person on a call, so you dont have multiple notetakers from the same organization joining (which would be redundant).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This gives you full control over which meetings Notetaker should automatically join or not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Any Quesitons?
