Create & Send Client Session Summaries from Zoom Meetings via Gmail and Airtable

Last edited 58 days ago

Description

Whenever a Zoom “Meeting assets” email arrives in your Gmail inbox, this workflow will:

  1. Trigger on new Gmail messages filtered by the subject “Meeting assets”.

  2. Extract from the email (HTML or plain text):

  3. Type of session (e.g. “1 hour”, “2 hours”, or “exploratory call”).

    • Client’s full name.
    • Session date & time (from the GMT… timestamp).
    • Duration (HH:MM:SS).
    • Recording link.
    • Quick summary.
    • Detailed summary.
    • List of next steps.
  4. Lookup the client in your Master Airtable base, table People, by full name.

  5. Send a personalized Gmail to the client with all extracted details.

  6. Create a new record in your Sessions table in Airtable, linking back to that client.

Quick Start

  1. Import this JSON into n8n as a new workflow.
  2. Connect your Gmail credentials (OAuth2).
  3. Connect your Airtable credentials (Personal Access Token).
  4. In the Search Records node:
  5. Base → your Master base ID.
  6. Table → “Your people table”.
  7. Filter By Formula → ={Full Name} = '{{ $json.clientName }}'.
  8. In the Create Record node: Table → “Sessions”.
  9. Map each field (dateTime, duration, summaries, next steps, client link).
  10. Activate the workflow.

Prerequisites

- n8n v1.50 or higher
- A Gmail account with OAuth2 credentials configured
- An Airtable base containing:
- Table People with a Full Name field (and email).
- Table Sessions with fields: DateTime, Duration, Quick Summary, Detailed Summary, Next Steps, and a Linked Record to People.
- An Airtable Personal Access Token with read/write access to that base.

Tips & Extensions

  • Timezone conversion: Use a Function node with moment-timezone to convert UTC if needed.

  • Error handling: Add a catch node to log or notify if any field fails to parse.

  • Alternate notifications: Swap the Gmail node for Slack, Microsoft Teams, or SMS integrations.

  • With this documentation, your team can import and deploy the workflow in minutes.

Enjoy!
