Steps

1. Configure Zoom App

   Create an App in the Zoom Developer Console, enable the meeting.ended event subscription, and paste the n8n Webhook node URL (path: zoom-meeting-ended) into Zoom's event notification endpoint.

2. Connect Google Docs

   Add Google OAuth credentials in n8n and authorize Google Docs and Google Drive access. The Save to Google Docs node will automatically save documents to your Google Drive.

3. Connect Slack

   Add Slack OAuth credentials in n8n, and replace the channel in the Post to Slack node with your actual channel (e.g., #team-meetings).

4. Configure OpenAI

   Add your OpenAI API key credentials in n8n. The Generate AI Notes node uses GPT-4; the source does not show the specific system/user prompt or temperature, so you will need to supply these during setup.

5. Run the workflow

   When a Zoom meeting ends and fires the meeting.ended event, the workflow runs automatically: 1) Webhook receives the event; 2) Code node normalizes the Zoom payload into fields like meeting_id, topic, host, duration, transcript; 3) OpenAI GPT-4 node generates a summary; 4) Google Docs node creates a document (title includes topic and timestamp); 5) Slack node sends a summary with the document link.

       host: e.payload.object.host_email,
       start_time: e.payload.object.start_time,
       end_time: e.payload.object.end_time,
       duration: e.payload.object.duration,
       participants: e.payload.object.participant_count || 0,
       transcript: e.payload.object.transcript || '', // if transcript available
       timestamp: new Date().toISOString()
     }
   };

You are setting up n8n template 8057 for an automated meeting-notes workflow: Zoom → GPT-4 → Google Docs → Slack. First confirm these inputs and permissions:
1) n8n instance access; 2) Zoom Developer Console access to create an App; 3) Google OAuth credentials; 4) Slack OAuth credentials; 5) OpenAI API key.

Recommended setup order:
- Configure the Zoom Webhook first (path: zoom-meeting-ended, POST), then subscribe to meeting.ended in the Zoom App;
- Connect Google Docs, Slack, and OpenAI credentials;
- Verify the Normalize Data field mapping matches your Zoom payload;
- Add a system prompt and output format in the Generate AI Notes node (not provided by the source; design your own);
- Run an end-to-end test with a real or test meeting.
