Record an online meeting

Record a Zoom, Teams or Google Meet meeting and turn both the other participants’ voices and your own into text.

  • For: All members
  • About 3 min
  • Chrome / Edge

What you need

  • Open GIJITO in Chrome or Edge on a computer.
  • Join the meeting you want to record first.
  • On a phone-sized screen, only In-person meeting, which records with the microphone, is available.

Steps

Where is the meeting open?

Press Start recording

Step 1 of 8

Recording in the desktop app

In the GIJITO desktop app (the app you install on your computer), the Start the meeting window opens straight away, and the browser’s share window and microphone prompt do not appear. There, choose Online meeting, check the Spoken language and press Start recording.

The app connects the other participants’ voices and the microphone. The first time you record, allow them when your computer asks. To install the app, see Install the desktop app and sign in.

When you finish

What was said is saved as a transcript, and you can go straight on to create the minutes.

If something does not work

The other participants’ voices do not become text

Check that the tab (or window) you chose in step 4 is the meeting’s, and that audio sharing was on. For how to fix it, see Fix missing audio or interrupted recording.

My voice does not become text

Check that you allowed the microphone in step 5, and that a microphone is connected to the computer.

If the microphone cannot be used, GIJITO switches to Listen only by itself and tells you in a message. While Listen only is on, your voice is not recorded. Once the microphone works, press Try the microphone again in the message.

The ‘How are you meeting?’ window does not appear

If you once ticked Don't show this again, the Start the meeting window opens without it.

For a meeting open in a browser tab, choose Online meeting under Meeting type. If Connect appears next to PC audio or Microphone, press it, PC audio first. What you do in the browser’s windows is the same as in steps 4 and 5.

For a meeting open in a PC app, first reload the page in your browser, so that anything you connected with Connect is let go. When the Start the meeting window opens, close it, press the speaker or microphone button at the bottom of the screen and choose Audio setup guide. The How are you meeting? window opens; go on from step 2.

The desktop app does not show this window.

I closed the share window

You are back in the Connect meeting audio window. Press Connect again to open the share window. If you were in the Start the meeting window, follow the section “The ‘How are you meeting?’ window does not appear”.

A message says this month’s transcription time is used up

While this message is shown, a new recording cannot start. To check what is left, see Check what is left this month and your AI credits.

If the time runs out during a recording, you get an extension of up to 60 minutes. The end time is shown on the screen, and the recording stops automatically at that time. The transcript up to then is saved.
