# Connections: Integrate Your Calendar and Gong to Brevity

## Set up Google Calendar, Outlook, and Gong so Brevity can automatically capture, transcribe, and analyze your live meetings.

### What the Connections tab does

The Connections tab is where you:

- Set up integrations with: 
    - Google Calendar
    - Microsoft Outlook
    - Gong (team-wide workspace connection)
- Control whether the **Brevity Notetaker** automatically joins your meetings
- See which integrations are **Active** vs **Available**

Once your integrations are set up, your meetings will appear in the **Meetings** tab for analysis.

### View Active vs Available connections

1. Go to **Connections** in the left navigation.
2. At the top of the page, use the **filter** to switch between: 
     - **Active connections** – integrations you’ve already set up.
     - **Available connections** – integrations you can still add.

This helps you quickly see what’s already connected and what’s left to configure.

### Connect Google Calendar

1. Navigate to **Connections**.
2. Find **Google Calendar** and click **Set up**.
3. A Google permissions window will open: 
     - Choose the Google account you use for work meetings.
     - Review the permissions requested for Brevity.
     - Click **Allow** to grant access.
4. When setup is complete, you can: 
     - **Go to Meetings** to see upcoming meetings and analysis.
     - Or **return to Connections** to set up additional integrations.

Once connected, Brevity can detect meetings that contain a virtual meeting link (e.g., Zoom, Teams, Google Meet) and send the Brevity Notetaker to them based on your settings.

 

### Connect Microsoft Outlook

1. Navigate to **Connections**.
2. Find **Microsoft Outlook** and click **Set up**.
3. You’ll be redirected to Microsoft’s sign-in page: 
     - Sign in with your work Outlook account.
     - Follow the prompts to approve Brevity’s access to your calendar.
4. After you approve, you can: 
     - **Go to Meetings** to confirm your upcoming meetings are visible.
     - Or **return to Connections** to manage other integrations.

Once connected, Brevity will read meetings from your Outlook calendar and can send the Notetaker to meetings with a virtual meeting link.

 

### Connect Gong (team-wide)

The Gong integration allows Brevity to sync recorded meetings from your Gong workspace and analyze them in the Meetings tab.

Note: Gong is typically configured at the **team or organization level**, not per-individual. You may need an admin to complete this setup.

1. Go to **Connections**.
2. Locate **Gong** and click **Set up** (or follow your admin’s instructions if this is centrally managed).
3. Follow the Gong authorization flow to: 
     - Sign into Gong.
     - Approve access for Brevity to your Gong workspace.
4. Once connected: 
     - Gong meetings will appear in **Meetings → History**.
     - You’ll be able to open them and view the full **Meeting analysis** just like calendar-based meetings.

In your Meetings list, Gong-sourced meetings will be clearly labeled (e.g., with a **Gong** pill).

#### Privacy for Gong integration

Brevity’s Gong integration is designed to respect your existing privacy settings:

- **Private meetings stay private** – If a call is marked as private or otherwise restricted in Gong, it will **not** be synced into Brevity and will not be analyzed.
- **Gong sharing rules apply** – Brevity only receives meetings that are visible and shareable according to your Gong workspace configuration and permissions.

#### Sync timing for Gong

- **Automatically syncs every 6 hours** – Brevity checks Gong and imports eligible meetings roughly every **6 hours**, so new calls may take some time to appear in the **Meetings → History** tab.
- **Manual sync from Connections** – If you don’t want to wait for the next automatic sync, you can trigger a **manual sync** from the **Connections** tab on your Gong connection.

### Control when the Brevity Notetaker joins meetings

By default, when you connect a calendar, Brevity is set to **automatically join all meetings that have a virtual meeting link**.

You can change this from the Connections page:

1. Go to **Connections**.
2. Under your connected calendar (Google or Outlook), locate the **Brevity Notetaker** setting.
3. Use the toggle: 
     - **On** – Brevity Notetaker will automatically join **all meetings that include a meeting link**.
     - **Off** – You will **manually choose** which meetings it joins from the **Meetings → Dashboard**.

If you prefer fine-grained control (only some meetings recorded/analyzed), turn the toggle **off** and manage attendance per-meeting in the Meetings tab.

 

### What happens after setup

Once you’ve completed your Connections setup:

- Your **upcoming meetings** will appear under **Meetings → Dashboard** and **Meetings → Calendar**.
- Your **past meetings** with transcripts or Gong recordings will appear in **Meetings → History**.
- Anytime the Brevity Notetaker attends a meeting (or a meeting is synced from Gong), you’ll get: 
    - An **individual Meeting analysis** page
    - Risk and coaching insights
    - (If you’re an admin) rollups in **Meetings → Team overview**

For details on how to use those insights, see: [**Using Meeting Analysis in Brevity (Meetings Tab)**](https://support.brevitypitch.com/en-us/knowledgebase/meetings-tab?hsLang=en-us).

### FAQs

1. **Do I need both a calendar and Gong connected?** No. You can use Brevity with just a calendar connection, just Gong, or both. A calendar lets the Brevity Notetaker join live meetings; Gong imports already-recorded calls.
2. **What meetings will the Brevity Notetaker join by default?** After you connect your calendar, Brevity is set to join **all meetings that include a virtual meeting link**. You can turn this off in **Connections**.
3. **Can I choose specific meetings for the Notetaker to join?** Yes. Turn off auto-join in **Connections**, then use **Meetings → Dashboard** to tell Brevity which upcoming meetings to join.
4. **How do I see which integration a meeting came from?** In **Meetings → History**, each meeting includes a label (e.g., **Google Calendar**, **Outlook**, or **Gong**) so you can tell the source at a glance.
5. **What permissions does Brevity need from my calendar?** Brevity needs access to read your calendar events and identify which ones include a meeting link, so it can schedule and join the correct meetings.
