Meet Hour Zapier integrationAutomate Meet Hour with Zapier.

The Meet Hour Zapier integration gives you 0 triggers and 32 actions, with no search step. Meet Hour can only be the second step of a Zap: another app starts it, then Meet Hour schedules, edits, cancels or fetches. Here is what each action does and costs.

Overview

What the Meet Hour Zapier integration actually does for you

The Meet Hour Zapier integration lets your other apps drive Meet Hour, the video meeting platform, without code. Something happens elsewhere (a form is sent, a row is added, a contact appears in your CRM) and Zapier turns it into a Meet Hour meeting, contact, group change or cancellation. Meet Hour never starts the Zap: it always comes in as a later step.

Three results worth building first. A meeting booked from a form: a request sent through your form becomes a scheduled call through Schedule Meeting, with or without a calendar invite to the attendees. A contact book kept in step: new people in your CRM become Meet Hour contacts with Add Contact, then join a group through Add Contact to Group. A cancellation that follows the source: when a booking is called off in another tool, Archive / Cancel Meeting cancels the Meet Hour meeting too.

On top of those, several actions only read: they fetch upcoming, missed or completed meetings, recordings, transcriptions or contact lists and hand them to the next step.

What Zapier does not do for Meet Hour: there is no trigger at all, so nothing that happens inside Meet Hour (a meeting ending, a recording appearing) can start a Zap. There is no search step either, so most actions need an ID you already hold. And nothing that existed before the Zap was switched on is processed. If you need Meet Hour to start automations, see our n8n vs Zapier page.

Vocabulary

Zapier vocabulary in one minute

Eight words come back throughout this page. Here they are once, in plain English.

Zap
The automation you build on Zapier: one trigger, then one or more actions that run each time the trigger event happens.
Trigger
The event in an app that starts the Zap. Meet Hour has none, so the trigger always comes from another app.
Action
What the Zap does after it starts: the step that writes, sends or moves something in an app for you.
Task
The unit Zapier bills. Each action your Zap completes successfully is one task, and your plan counts those.
Polling trigger
A trigger Zapier checks on a timer, asking the app for new items at a fixed interval and keeping only unseen ones.
Instant trigger
A trigger the app reports itself: it calls Zapier the moment the event happens, so nothing waits for a check.
Filter
A step that lets the Zap go on only when the incoming data meets the condition you set, and stops it otherwise.
Multi-step Zap
Any Zap beyond one trigger and one action. A second action or a filter turns it into one, and it then needs a paid plan.
Cost

What a Meet Hour Zap really costs

Meet Hour is not a premium app on Zapier, so it works on the free plan. You pay in tasks, and every Meet Hour step is an action, so every one that succeeds is billed.

  • Premium appNo, works on the free plan
  • Free plan100 tasks a month, two-step Zaps
  • Meet Hour triggers0, the Zap starts elsewhere
  • Read-only actionsBilled one task each, like the rest

The trigger from the other app costs nothing. Each Meet Hour action that goes through counts one task, the read-only ones included: fetching the list of upcoming meetings costs a task just like scheduling one. A failed action is not counted. The free plan gives 100 tasks a month and unlimited Zaps of two steps, so one trigger and one Meet Hour action. A filter or a second action makes a multi-step Zap that needs a paid plan. The grid below only concerns the trigger of the other app, if it is a polling one; Meet Hour itself has no trigger.

Connect

Connect your Meet Hour account in three steps

  1. 01

    Open the Apps page

    In Zapier, go to Apps and click + Add connection. You need a Meet Hour account, plus read or write access on any meeting, contact or group you do not own yourself but want the Zap to touch.

  2. 02

    Find Meet Hour

    Type Meet Hour in the search box of the dialog, select it and click Add connection. A new tab opens on the Meet Hour side, which is where you actually sign in.

  3. 03

    Sign in and grant access

    Log in to Meet Hour in that tab and allow Zapier to use the account. The connection is saved once, then every Meet Hour step in every Zap you build reuses it.

First Zap

Your first Zap: turn a form request into a Meet Hour meeting

GoalWhen someone asks for a call through your form, and the request is one you accept, Meet Hour schedules the meeting and can send the calendar invite.

  1. 01

    Create the Zap and set the trigger

    Start a new Zap, pick your form tool as the app and the event for a new response. Connect that account. Meet Hour has no trigger, so the Zap always starts in another app.

  2. 02

    Test the trigger

    Run the test so Zapier brings back recent responses, then map the next steps on a real one. Check at the test that a date, a time and a timezone actually come through.

  3. 03

    Add the filter

    Click the plus icon, add Filter and fill the three boxes: the field to look at, the rule, the value. A text rule only works on text, so match the rule to the field.

  4. 04

    Add Schedule Meeting

    Add a Meet Hour step with Schedule Meeting. Map the name, password, date, time, AM or PM and timezone, and choose 1 or 0 for the portal and the calendar invite. Test it once.

  5. 05

    Publish

    Click Publish. The filter makes this a multi-step Zap, so it needs a paid plan. Without it, the Zap fits the free plan but books every request it receives.

Actions

Meet Hour actions: the 32 things a Zap can do in Meet Hour

Meet Hour gives you 32 actions. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.

1

Add Contact

Action

In Zapier“creates and adds a new contact.”

Creates a new contact in your Meet Hour contact list from data an earlier step brought in.

When to use it
people who sign up or appear in your CRM should be ready to invite in Meet Hour.
Watch out
first name and email are both required, so map a source that always carries them.
2

Create Contact Group

Action

In Zapier“Creates and adds a contact to a contact group.”

Opens a new contact group in Meet Hour under the name you give it, ready to collect contacts.

When to use it
each new project or team in another tool deserves its own group of people to invite together.
Watch out
the group name is required; reuse a clear, stable value so groups are easy to find later.
3

Add Contact to Group

Action

In Zapier“Adds a contact to a contact group.”

Puts an existing contact into an existing contact group, using their two IDs.

When to use it
right after Add Contact, to file the new person in the right group in the same Zap.
Watch out
Group Id and Contact Id are required; several contact IDs go in one field, separated by commas.
4

Add Multiple Contacts to Group

Action

In Zapier“Adds multiple contacts to group.”

Adds a whole batch of contacts to one group in a single step, instead of one action per person.

When to use it
a list of people arrives at once and should land in the same group.
Watch out
the contact IDs go comma-separated in one field, and the group ID is required too.
5

Add Participants to Existing Meeting

Action

In Zapier“Add new participants to an existing meeting”

Invites extra people to a meeting that is already scheduled in Meet Hour.

When to use it
someone registers late in another tool and must join a meeting that was booked earlier.
Watch out
you pick the meeting and the participants from the account, so both must already exist in Meet Hour.
6

Archive / Cancel Meeting

Action

In Zapier“Archives or cancels the schedule meeting.”

Archives or cancels a scheduled meeting, so it no longer stands as an upcoming call.

When to use it
a booking is called off in your form tool or your sheet, and Meet Hour should drop the meeting too.
Watch out
Meeting Id is required, so keep the ID somewhere when the meeting is first created.
7

Completed Meetings

Action

In Zapier“Fetches list of all the completed meetings details.”

Gives the Zap every meeting that has already taken place, with its details.

When to use it
a report or a sheet should list the meetings held, built from another app's trigger.
Watch out
it reads, it does not react: the Zap only fetches when its own trigger in another app fires.
8

Customer Notifications

Action

In Zapier“Configures different notifications from meet hour.”

Switches the account's Meet Hour notifications on or off: email, SMS, push, and the email sent when a participant joins.

When to use it
notification settings should change in response to an event in another app.
Watch out
the four switches are all required, so set each one explicitly every time.
9

Delete Contact

Action

In Zapier“Removes the existing contact from the contact list.”

Removes an existing contact from your Meet Hour contact list.

When to use it
a person is deleted or unsubscribed in your main tool and should disappear from Meet Hour as well.
Watch out
Contact Id is required; check at the test that the ID arriving is the contact you mean to remove.
10

Delete Contact Group

Action

In Zapier“Deletes the existing contact group.”

Deletes an existing contact group from Meet Hour.

When to use it
a project closes in another tool and its group of invitees has no further use.
Watch out
the Group Id is required; check at the test that it points at the group you really want gone.
11

Delete Meeting

Action

In Zapier“Deletes already scheduled meeting.”

Deletes a meeting that was already scheduled, instead of archiving it.

When to use it
a meeting should leave no trace once its source record is removed elsewhere.
Watch out
Meeting Id is required; if you only want to call the meeting off, Archive / Cancel Meeting is the softer choice.
12

Delete Recording

Action

In Zapier“Delete a recording from the storage.”

Removes a recording from Meet Hour storage.

When to use it
once a recording has been copied or processed by another step, the original no longer needs to stay in Meet Hour.
Watch out
Recording Id is required, so make sure at the test that the ID mapped is the right recording.
13

Edit Contact

Action

In Zapier“Updates the existing contact.”

Updates the details of an existing Meet Hour contact with fresher data from another app.

When to use it
your CRM holds the reference version of a person's name or email and Meet Hour should follow.
Watch out
Contact Id, first name and email are all required, even if only one of them changes.
14

Edit Contact Group

Action

In Zapier“Updates and edits the existing contacts group details.”

Renames or updates an existing contact group in Meet Hour.

When to use it
a team or project is renamed in another tool and the matching group should carry the new name.
Watch out
the group ID and the name are both required; without the ID, the step does not know which group to touch.
15

Edit Meeting

Action

In Zapier“Updates the meeting details for already scheduled meeting.”

Changes the details of a meeting that is already scheduled, without rebooking it.

When to use it
the source of the booking changed and the Meet Hour meeting has to reflect it.
Watch out
Meeting Id is required, and so are two switches: 1 or 0 for showing the meeting on the Meet Hour portal, and 1 or 0 for sending a calendar invite.
16

Edit Personal Meeting

Action

In Zapier“Edits the personal room meeting details.”

Updates your personal room in Meet Hour: its name, description and password.

When to use it
the access details of your standing room should change from a single source, for instance a sheet you maintain.
Watch out
name, description, Meeting Id and password are all required on every run.
17

Edit Profile

Action

In Zapier“API that edits a user profile.”

Rewrites the profile of the connected Meet Hour user: name, email and phone number.

When to use it
profile details are kept elsewhere and Meet Hour should mirror them.
Watch out
all three fields are required, so map a source that carries a name, an email and a phone number.
18

Generate JWT

Action

In Zapier“Generates the JWT token which is used to join a meeting.”

Produces a JWT, a signed token that works like a pass for joining a given meeting, which a later step can send or store.

When to use it
another tool needs a ready join pass for a meeting.
Watch out
Meeting Id is required; the many on-off switches for the meeting page are optional, so leave the ones you do not understand alone.
19

Get Single Recording

Action

In Zapier“Fetches the single recording details.”

Fetches the details of one recording, so the following steps can use them.

When to use it
a Zap already holds a recording ID and needs its details to share or file them.
Watch out
Recording Id is required; check at the test which details actually come back.
20

Get Single Transcription

Action

In Zapier“Fetches the single transcription details from a meeting.”

Pulls the details of one meeting transcription into the Zap.

When to use it
the text of a meeting should reach a document, a note or another tool.
Watch out
Transcription Id is required, and with no trigger on Meet Hour the Zap cannot react on its own when a transcription appears.
21

List of Archive Meeting

Action

In Zapier“Fetches the list of all the archive meetings.”

Returns the meetings that have been archived or cancelled.

When to use it
you keep a record of cancellations in another tool and want to rebuild it from Meet Hour.
Watch out
it only covers meetings already archived when the action runs.
22

List of Contacts

Action

In Zapier“Fetches list of the contacts.”

Pulls your full Meet Hour contact list into the Zap.

When to use it
you need contact IDs for a later step such as Edit Contact or Delete Contact, and no search step exists.
Watch out
check at the test how the contacts come back before mapping one of them.
23

List of Contact Groups

Action

In Zapier“Fetches the list of contact groups.”

Fetches all your contact groups, which is where group IDs come from.

When to use it
a later step needs a Group Id and the Zap does not carry it yet.
Watch out
each run is billed as a task, so do not chain it in front of every step out of habit.
24

List of Group Contacts

Action

In Zapier“Fetches the list of contacts from a specific group.”

Shows who belongs to one specific contact group.

When to use it
before removing people from a group, you want the current members and their IDs.
Watch out
the Group Id is required, so List of Contact Groups can come first to supply it.
25

Missed Meetings

Action

In Zapier“Fetches list of all the missed meetings details.”

Lists the meetings that were scheduled but missed, with their details.

When to use it
missed calls should feed a follow-up list in another tool.
Watch out
each run costs a task, so start it from a trigger that does not fire more often than you need.
26

Personal Room

Action

In Zapier“Fetches the personal room details.”

Reads your Meet Hour personal room and passes its details along.

When to use it
a message or a page in another tool should carry your standing room details.
Watch out
to change those details, use Edit Personal Meeting instead; this one only reads.
27

Recording List

Action

In Zapier“Lists of all the recordings details.”

Returns the list of all your recordings with their details.

When to use it
a Zap started by another app needs an overview of what has been recorded.
Watch out
it is an action, so each run costs a task even though it only reads.
28

Remove Multiple Contacts From Group

Action

In Zapier“Removes the multiple contacts from a group.”

Takes several contacts out of a group at once, leaving the contacts themselves in place.

When to use it
people leave a project or a list elsewhere and should stop being invited with that group.
Watch out
Group Id and the comma-separated Contact Id values are both required.
29

Schedule Meeting

Action

In Zapier“Schedules or creates a new meeting.”

Books a new meeting in Meet Hour, with its password, date, time and timezone, and can email a calendar invite.

When to use it
a request in a form or a row in a sheet should end up as a real meeting slot.
Watch out
the date and time are read as your local time, the time is on a 12-hour clock with AM or PM, and the name stops at 200 characters.
30

Transcription List

Action

In Zapier“Lists of all the transcription details.”

Brings back all your transcriptions and their details in one step.

When to use it
you want to pick the transcription IDs a later Get Single Transcription will use.
Watch out
check at the test how the list arrives before mapping it into the next step.
31

Upcoming Meetings

Action

In Zapier“Fetches the list of all the upcoming meetings details.”

Fetches every meeting still to come, with its details, for the following steps.

When to use it
a message or a sheet should show what is on the Meet Hour agenda.
Watch out
the list reflects the moment the action runs; check at the test which details it carries.
32

Get Users Details

Action

In Zapier“API that fetches user details.”

Returns the details of the Meet Hour user behind the connection.

When to use it
a later step needs the account's own details, for instance to fill a record elsewhere.
Watch out
check at the test which details come back, and remember it costs a task like any action.
When it breaks

When a Meet Hour Zap breaks

Zapier links no help article to Meet Hour, so these are the general traps, plus the one this app adds.

The editor warns you about none of these cases. Read them before you publish, not once the task count has moved. For a wider checklist, see our Zapier troubleshooting guide.

  • Nothing from before the Zap

    A Zap only reacts to what happens after it is switched on. Requests or contacts that existed earlier are never processed; moving that backlog is a separate job.
  • A Zap that keeps restarting

    A Zap that writes into the place its own trigger watches can set itself off again and again, burning tasks fast. Keep what Meet Hour writes away from what the trigger watches.
  • A bulk import held back

    When the other app's trigger suddenly returns a huge batch, after a bulk import or a migration, Zapier's flood protection can hold those items back.
  • A missing ID

    Most Meet Hour actions need a meeting, contact, group or recording ID. With no search step, an earlier step must carry it, or the action has nothing to act on.

FAQ

Meet Hour Zapier integration: frequent questions

01Is the Meet Hour Zapier integration free?
Yes, it works on the free plan, since Meet Hour is not a premium app. The free plan gives 100 tasks a month and unlimited Zaps, but each Zap stops at two steps: one trigger and one action. Because Meet Hour has no trigger, a free Zap is always another app plus one Meet Hour action, such as a form response that runs Schedule Meeting. Add a filter or a second action and it becomes a multi-step Zap that needs a paid plan.
02How many tasks does a Meet Hour Zap use?
One task per Meet Hour action that succeeds, and nothing for the trigger in the other app. Read-only actions count too: Upcoming Meetings or List of Contacts cost one task each time they run, exactly like Schedule Meeting. A Zap that adds a contact and then files it in a group costs two tasks per run. A failed action is not counted, and an item a filter stops costs nothing because no action ran.
03Can Meet Hour start a Zap in real time?
No, Meet Hour has no trigger on Zapier, so it cannot start a Zap at all. The Zap always begins in another app, and that app's trigger decides the pace. If it is instant, Meet Hour acts right away; if it is a polling trigger, it waits for the next check, every 15 minutes on Free and 1 minute on Team or Enterprise. Check how the trigger of the app you choose works before relying on timing.
04What does it take to connect Meet Hour to Zapier?
A Meet Hour account, plus read or write access on any meeting, contact or group you do not own but want the Zap to touch. From the Apps page of Zapier, click + Add connection, search Meet Hour, click Add connection, then sign in to Meet Hour in the tab that opens and grant access. The connection is saved once and reused by every Meet Hour step, in any Zap you build afterwards.
05Which date and time fields does Schedule Meeting expect?
Four fields work together. The date and the time are read as your local time, the time uses a 12-hour clock, a separate field takes AM or PM, and the timezone is required on its own. The date accepts day-month-year or year-month-day with dashes, and the meeting name stops at 200 characters. If your source stores times another way, convert them before this step, then check at the test that the meeting lands where you expect.
06What if the Meet Hour operation you want is not on Zapier?
Then the editor will not offer it, and no setting adds it. Meet Hour on Zapier offers 32 actions but no trigger and no search, so anything that should start when a meeting ends or a recording appears is out of reach from Meet Hour itself. Sometimes a workaround exists, such as running Completed Meetings from another app's trigger. If the gap blocks the whole idea, compare what other automation tools offer for Meet Hour first.
07Zapier, Make or n8n for Meet Hour?
Choose by criterion, not by a winner. For coverage of actions, Zapier exposes 32 Meet Hour actions behind a single sign-in. For starting automations from Meet Hour, Zapier offers no trigger, so check whether another tool listens to Meet Hour events. For cost, every Meet Hour action is billed as a task on Zapier, read-only ones included; compare how each tool counts. Test each option against the exact Zap you want to run.
