Before you start
- Calls run on the hosted service; a self-hosted workspace needs its call service set up first.
- Transcription needs AI Workers set up in the workspace. Owners and maintainers can turn on Enable transcription in new office rooms in Settings › Office settings.
- A Tracker project the follow-up issues can go into.
- Members with the User role or above can create issues; Guests only if an owner allows it.
Steps
Meet in a room and start transcription
Click a meeting room on the floor plan to join its call, then click Start transcription in the call controls. While it runs, the call header says Transcribing and the lines are saved to the meeting minutes.
In the user guideWrite the decisions and action items in the minutes
Open Meeting minutes in the Office navigator and click the meeting. Under Description, everyone can edit the notes at the same time; use headings, lists and to-dos for decisions and action items.
In the user guideName the minutes so you can find them later
New minutes are named after the room and the date, so click the title at the top and rename them, for example "Beta 1.0 scope review". Later, use Search meeting minutes to find them by title.
In the user guideTurn each action item into a linked issue
Click ⋯ at the top of the minutes and choose New related issue. The issue is created in Tracker and linked back to the meeting.
In the user guideGive the issue an owner and a date
In the New issue dialog, type the Issue title and use the chips to set the assignee, due date and milestone, then click Create issue. Every issue assigned to someone appears as an action item in their Planner.
In the user guidePlan personal follow-ups in the Planner
For small to-dos that don't need an issue, open Planner and type in Add Action Item, press Enter to save. Right-click an action item and choose Schedule… to block time for it.
In the user guideOr ask Maxima to create the issues
In AI Workers › Chat, tell Maxima which issues to create, in which project and for whom. Maxima asks before creating more than three issues in one go, and only does what you are allowed to do.
