Overview

What the Notta Zapier integration does for your meetings

Notta records meetings, turns the audio into text and writes AI notes from it. Plugged into Zapier through a Zap (an automation you set up once and that then runs on its own), it can hand those transcripts and notes to your other tools, and it can be told to record or transcribe something without you opening Notta.

Three results worth building.

Meeting notes filed without copy-paste. New AI Notes fires once Notta has written the notes, and the Zap drops them into your CRM, your project tool or a shared doc. The sales call summary sits on the deal before the next call.

A bot that shows up for you. Attend Meeting sends the Notta bot into a Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams or Webex call. Start it from a calendar event and every booked call gets recorded and transcribed.

Recordings turned into summaries. A file lands in your storage, Transcribes an Audio or Video turns it into text, Generate AI Summary writes the notes and Get AI Summary brings them back for the next step. Handy for interviews, podcasts or voice memos.

What Zapier can't do with Notta: there's no search step, so a Zap can't look up an older recording. The three triggers only fire for new transcripts, new notes and new public shares. And all three are instant, so the plan's polling interval never slows them down.

Vocabulary

The Zapier words behind this page

Seven terms are enough to follow every section. One plain line each.

Zap
The automation you build on Zapier: one trigger, followed by one or more actions that run each time the trigger happens.
Trigger
The event in an app that starts the Zap, like new AI notes in Notta. Once the Zap is on, Zapier waits for it to happen.
Action
What the Zap does once started: the step that writes, sends or moves something for you, such as transcribing a file.
Task
The unit Zapier charges: one action your Zap completes successfully. The monthly allowance of your plan is counted in tasks.
Instant vs polling
An instant trigger is pushed by the app as soon as the event happens. A polling trigger is checked by Zapier on a timer.
Filter
A step that lets the Zap go on only when the incoming data meets your condition, and stops it otherwise.
Connection
Your Notta account linked to Zapier once, then reused by every Zap and every step that reads from or writes to Notta.
Cost

What Notta Zaps cost in tasks

Notta isn't a premium app, so it runs on Zapier's free plan. The bill is in tasks, and only actions that succeed are counted.

  • Free plan100 tasks a month, unlimited Zaps
  • Zap size on Free2 steps: one trigger, one action
  • Transcribe + summarize chain3 actions, so 3 tasks per file
  • Premium appNo, Notta works on Free

The Notta trigger is free: new notes arriving cost nothing. Each action that completes costs one task. The catch is the transcription chain: transcribe, generate the summary, then fetch it is three actions, so three tasks per file, plus whatever you do with the result. Failed actions aren't billed. The free plan only builds two-step Zaps, one trigger and one action, so that chain, or any filter, needs a paid plan. All three Notta triggers are instant, so the polling grid below never delays them.

Connect

Connect Notta to Zapier in three steps

  1. 01

    Open the Apps page

    In Zapier, go to Apps and click + Add connection. Have your Notta login ready, with access to the workspace where recordings and transcripts should be saved.

  2. 02

    Select Notta

    Type Notta in the dialog's search box, pick it, then click Add connection. A new tab opens on Notta's side so you can sign in with your account and approve.

  3. 03

    Sign in and allow access

    Log in to Notta in that tab and grant Zapier access. The connection is saved in your list, and every Zap that uses Notta picks it up without asking again.

First Zap

Your first Zap: client call notes straight to your CRM

GoalWhen Notta finishes the AI notes of a meeting, keep only client calls and add the notes to your CRM.

  1. 01

    Build: start from Notta

    Create a Zap, pick Notta and the New AI Notes event, then your connection. Set the AI Summary option to true so only recordings that actually have notes start the Zap.

  2. 02

    Test the trigger

    Run the test. Zapier pulls the three most recent recordings with notes from your account. Choose a real meeting so the next steps map real text, not a blank sample.

  3. 03

    Add the filter

    Click the plus icon, choose Filter, then set the field, a text rule and the word your client meetings share. A text rule on a text field, or it never passes. This makes the Zap multi-step: paid plan.

  4. 04

    Send the notes to the CRM

    Add your CRM as the action and map the AI notes into a note on the right contact or deal. Keep the meeting title in the note so people know where it came from.

  5. 05

    Test, then publish

    Test the action and check the note in your CRM. Then click Publish. Each client call that passes the filter costs one task; the rest cost nothing.

Triggers

Notta triggers in Zapier

3 events start a Zap when something happens in Notta, and 3 of them are instant: the app calls Zapier straight away, whatever your plan.

1

New AI Notes

Instant trigger

In Zapier“Triggers when AI notes for a new transcript have been generated.”

Fires once Notta has written the AI notes for a fresh transcript, so your Zap receives the summary rather than the raw text. Pick it when the gist matters more than every word.

How it fires
the app tells Zapier the moment it happens, so the Zap starts right away, whatever your plan
When to use it
push meeting summaries into a CRM, a project board or a shared notes page as soon as the call is processed.
Watch out
set the AI Summary option to true, or recordings you never meant to share can travel too.
2

New Transcript

Instant trigger

In Zapier“Triggers when a new recording has been transcribed.”

Starts the Zap the moment a recording has been turned into text in Notta, before any AI notes exist. You get the full transcript to work with.

How it fires
the app tells Zapier the moment it happens, so the Zap starts right away, whatever your plan
When to use it
archive every transcript in a document folder, or feed interviews to a research team that wants the exact words.
Watch out
switch Need Media File on only when a later step must copy the audio, such as a backup to cloud storage.
3

Public Notes

Instant trigger

In Zapier“Triggers when a new recording has been shared publicly.”

Goes off when someone shares a recording publicly from Notta, which is a clear signal that it's meant to be seen outside the team.

How it fires
the app tells Zapier the moment it happens, so the Zap starts right away, whatever your plan
When to use it
post the shared link in a client channel, or keep a register of what has been made public and when.
Watch out
with the Transcript option on true, a share with an empty transcript won't start the Zap; set it to false if you want those too.
Actions

Notta actions in Zapier

Notta gives you 4 actions. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.

1

Attend Meeting

Action

In Zapier“To enable the Notta Bot to record and transcribe online meetings on platforms such as Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, and Webex.”

Sends the Notta bot into an online meeting on Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams or Webex to record and transcribe it, with the screen too if you ask.

When to use it
after a calendar trigger, so each booked call gets a bot without anyone remembering to invite it.
Watch out
the Bot name is required, but Google Meet ignores it; that bot's name can't be changed.
2

Transcribes an Audio or Video

Action

In Zapier“Transcribes an audio or video”

Hands Notta an audio or video file and gets the text back, in the language you choose, with speakers told apart if you switch that on.

When to use it
a recording lands in your storage or form tool and you want it written down without uploading it by hand.
Watch out
a URL must be public; otherwise pass the file from the previous step instead.
3

Get AI Summary

Action

In Zapier“Get AI summary after it’s completed.”

Collects the finished summary so the steps after it can use the text, whether that's an email, a document or a CRM note.

When to use it
as the last Notta step of the chain, just before you send the summary where it belongs.
Watch out
it needs the Record ID from Generate AI Summary and the same Workspace Name, or nothing comes back.
4

Generate AI Summary

Action

In Zapier“Generate an AI summary once the Notta transcription step is completed.”

Asks Notta to write a summary of a transcription made earlier in the same Zap, using the AI template and the summary language you pick.

When to use it
right after the transcription step, when people want the gist of an interview rather than every word.
Watch out
the Notta Task ID must come from the transcription step, and the workspace must match the one used there.
When it breaks

When it breaks

Zapier ties no help article to Notta, and no Notta-specific limit is documented. What follows are the general failure modes of any Zap, applied to recordings.

Three situations account for most surprises. If a run goes wrong, the Zapier troubleshooting guide shows how to read the Zap's history and find the failing step.

  • Old meetings stay put

    A Zap only reacts to what happens after it's published. Transcripts and notes created earlier are never sent; moving that archive is a separate job.
  • The transcription loop

    A Zap that starts on New Transcript and then transcribes a file in Notta creates another transcript, which fires the Zap again and burns tasks each round.
  • A big upload held back

    When a huge batch arrives at once, after a bulk import or a migration, Zapier's flood protection can hold the runs back instead of processing them all.

FAQ

Notta Zapier integration: common questions

01Is the Notta Zapier integration free?
Yes on the Zapier side: Notta isn't a premium app, so it works on the free plan, which gives 100 tasks a month and unlimited Zaps. Each free Zap is limited to two steps, one trigger and one action, so sending new AI notes to a document works, but the transcribe, summarize and fetch chain doesn't. On the Notta side, Attend Meeting only lets you pick workspaces on Notta's business and enterprise plans.
02How many tasks does a Notta Zap use?
One task per action that completes. The Notta trigger itself costs nothing, and neither does Zapier waiting for new notes. Sending a summary to your CRM is one task. Turning a file into a summary takes three actions, Transcribes an Audio or Video, Generate AI Summary and Get AI Summary, so three tasks per file before you even use the result. Actions that fail aren't counted, but a long chain eats the 100 free tasks fast.
03Are Notta triggers real time?
Yes. New AI Notes, New Transcript and Public Notes are all instant: Notta tells Zapier as soon as the event happens and the Zap starts straight away, whatever your plan. The polling intervals, 15 minutes on Free down to one minute on Team and Enterprise, don't apply. Inside a Zap, the two wait options decide the rest: set them to true and the next step only runs once Notta has finished the transcription or the summary.
04What do you need to connect a Notta account?
A Notta account and a Zapier account. In Zapier, open Apps, click + Add connection, search for Notta, then Add connection, sign in to Notta in the tab that opens and grant access. Each Notta action then asks for a Workspace Name, which is required. For Attend Meeting, only workspaces on Notta's business and enterprise plans appear, so check your plan first if the list comes up empty. The connection is then reused everywhere.
05Why does Generate AI Summary fail after a transcription?
Usually because a field doesn't point to the right earlier step. Generate AI Summary needs the Notta Task ID produced by Transcribes an Audio or Video, and the same Workspace Name. Get AI Summary then needs the Record ID from Generate AI Summary. Also set the wait options to true, so each step waits for Notta to finish before the next one runs. Mapping a value from the wrong step is the classic mistake.
06What if the Notta operation you need isn't there?
On Zapier, Notta has 3 triggers and 4 actions, with no search step. A Zap can't look up an older recording, and there's no action to delete or edit a transcript. When the move you want is missing, check whether the other app in your Zap can take it on, or handle that part by hand in Notta. If the workflow is bigger than a couple of Zaps, a Zapier agency can map what's feasible.
07Zapier, Make or n8n for Notta?
Pick by criterion rather than by name. Zapier gives Notta 3 instant triggers and a ready-made chain to transcribe and summarize files, which suits teams that want something running quickly. That chain is three actions per file, so on Zapier you'll be on a paid plan and should watch task usage. For high volumes, compare that cost with the same chain on Make, and weigh n8n on the same criteria: steps per file and what they cost.
