Google Meet Transcription n8n workflow

DGDmitry Grankin·August 13, 2025

Looking for the easiest way to add Google Meet transcription to your n8n workflows? With the open‑source Vexa API you can drop a bot into any Meet and capture real‑time and post‑meeting transcripts—all via two REST calls already wired into a ready‑to‑import workflow.

Quick Overview (Why Teams Search "Google Meet Transcript Automation")

  • Join & transcribe in minutes – No browser extensions or complex node setup
  • Real‑time triggers + full post‑meeting archive
  • Apache‑2.0 license – fork it, self‑host it, scale it
  • Plugs into any n8n flow – Slack, Notion, CRM, AI agents

How It Works (Under the Hood)

Both endpoints need one header:

-H 'X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY_HERE'

5‑Minute Setup (Video Demo Included)

  1. Download the workflow JSON
  2. Import into n8n (drag‑and‑drop)
  3. Paste your API key in both HTTP Request nodes
  4. Add a Google Meet link
  5. Execute – the bot joins, the transcript flows

Popular Workflows (Real‑Time & Post‑Meeting)

  1. Auto‑Join from Calendar (real‑time)
    Trigger: Google Calendar "Event started"
    Action: POST /bots
    Result: Transcription starts the moment the call begins

  2. Live Highlights to Slack (real‑time)
    Stream transcript → keyword filter → Slack message

  3. AI Summary to Notion (post‑meeting)
    GET /transcripts/google_meet/{meeting_id} → GPT‑4 → Notion page

  4. Compliance Archive (post‑meeting)
    Store JSON in S3 / BigQuery for audit & search
