Description

Turn your Zoom calls into clear meeting minutes and instant follow ups. The flow turns a recent Zoom meeting into an email summary, ClickUp tasks, and an Outlook follow up event. It suits teams that run many calls and need fast, accurate next steps.

Here is how it works. It pulls the latest scheduled Zoom meetings and keeps only those from the last 24 hours. It downloads the transcript file, extracts and cleans the text, and fetches the participant list for context. An AI model writes formal minutes, then a code step formats them into clean HTML. The system emails the summary to your team. An AI agent also scans for action items and sends them to a sub workflow that creates tasks in ClickUp. It then creates a follow up call in Microsoft Outlook. If no transcript exists, it stops with a clear error so you can fix the meeting settings.

You need access to Zoom with cloud transcripts, OpenAI, ClickUp, Microsoft Outlook, and an SMTP email account. After setup, most meetings go from raw transcript to ready tasks in minutes. Expect less manual note taking, faster handoffs, and fewer missed actions. This is great for sales calls, client check ins, and internal project reviews where next steps matter.

  • Downloads the Zoom transcript file and extracts clean text
  • Fetches participant data to enrich the meeting summary
  • Generates formal minutes using an OpenAI chat model
  • Formats the minutes into an HTML email with a custom code step

How to set this up?

  1. Import the template into n8n: Create a new workflow in n8n > Click the three dots menu > Select 'Import from File' > Choose the downloaded JSON file.
  2. You'll need accounts with Zoom, OpenAI, ClickUp, Microsoft Outlook and SMTP. See the Tools Required section above for links to create accounts with these services.
  3. In the n8n credentials manager, create an OpenAI credential. Use your API key from the OpenAI account page. Name the credential so you can find it later.
  4. Create a Zoom OAuth2 credential in the n8n credentials manager. Follow the on screen steps to connect your Zoom account. Make sure Zoom cloud recording and audio transcript are enabled in your Zoom settings.
  5. Create a Microsoft Outlook OAuth2 credential in the n8n credentials manager. Allow calendar and mail permissions when prompted.
  6. Create a ClickUp OAuth2 credential in the n8n credentials manager. Approve access to your workspace and team.
  7. Create an SMTP credential in the n8n credentials manager. Enter your email server host, port, username, and password. Enable TLS if your provider requires it. Use the test feature to confirm it connects.
  8. Open each Zoom node and choose your Zoom credential in the Credential to connect with dropdown. Do this for Get data of last meeting, Get transcript file, and Get participants data.
  9. Open the OpenAI nodes and select your OpenAI credential. Confirm the model field matches your plan.
  10. Open the Email Send node. Set From Email to your sender address. Set To Email to your team inbox or a variable that matches your needs. Keep the subject mapping as provided or adjust as needed.
  11. Open the Microsoft Outlook tool node. Select your Outlook credential. Pick the correct calendar or mailbox if the node shows these options.
  12. Open the ClickUp node and the task sub workflow configuration if needed. Select your ClickUp credential and set the workspace or list fields required for task creation.
  13. Check the Filter Last 24 hours node. Adjust the time window to fit your review period and confirm your timezone settings in n8n.
  14. Run the workflow with the manual trigger. Use a recent Zoom meeting that has a cloud transcript. Confirm you receive the HTML email, see tasks in ClickUp, and see the follow up in Outlook.
  15. Troubleshoot common issues. If you see No Recording or Transcript available, confirm the Zoom meeting had cloud recording and transcription enabled. If an API call fails with 401, reauthorize the related credential. If the email is blank, check the AI output and the Format to HTML code step.

Automate Zoom to ClickUp Task Management
Stop taking notes after calls. Turn Zoom meetings into a clear summary, action items in ClickUp, and a scheduled follow up in Microsoft Outlook. Great for sales calls, project updates, and client reviews. The flow starts on a manual run or from another workflow. It pulls recent Zoom meetings, limits results to the last 24 hours, finds the transcript file, downloads it, and extracts the text. The text is cleaned and sent to an AI model to create a short summary and clear to dos. Participants are fetched to build the mail list. A formatted HTML email is created and sent through SMTP. Tasks are created in ClickUp and a follow up event can be scheduled in Outlook. If no transcript exists, it stops with a clear message. Setup needs Zoom, ClickUp, Outlook, Anthropic, and SMTP access. Expect to cut post meeting work from 30 minutes to 5 minutes and reduce copy paste errors. Useful for account managers, consultants, and operations teams that want a repeatable follow up after every call. You can keep the time filter as is or change it to match your process.

Automate Zoom and Stripe Event Registrations
Sell and run online sessions without manual admin work. A simple form creates the Zoom meeting, builds a Stripe product and payment link, stores event data in Google Sheets, and sends a clear email to the host. When a buyer pays, the system adds the participant to the right sheet and emails both the attendee and the teacher. Two triggers power the flow. The creation form collects title, date, start hour, and price. It then schedules a Zoom meeting with a random password, creates a Stripe product and payment link, writes the event to Google Sheets, and emails the teacher. The Stripe payment trigger listens for successful payments. It reads customer details, uses Stripe metadata to pick the correct sheet tab, appends the participant row, sends the attendee confirmation, and notifies the teacher. Setup needs Zoom, Stripe, Google Sheets, and Gmail accounts. Add credentials in n8n, set currency, teacher email, and your Google Sheet URL in the Config node, and use the form production URL as your admin tool. Expect faster event setup, fewer mistakes, and one clean participant list. Ideal for training teams, education providers, and agencies that run paid workshops or classes.

Automate Zoom from Google Calendar Scheduling
Save time by preparing Zoom rooms for your day automatically. Each morning, your calendar is checked for the next block of meetings, and fresh Zoom meetings are created only for events that need them. Great for teams that run many remote calls and want fewer last minute rushes. A daily schedule starts the run at a set hour. A time window is built for the next 12 hours. Events are pulled from Google Calendar in that window. A filter removes canceled events, in person sessions, prebuilt Zoom links from tools like Calendly, and other internal meetings you do not want. For every event that passes the check, a Zoom meeting is created with the event name and the exact duration taken from the calendar start and end times. OAuth2 keeps account connections secure. Connect a Zoom account and a Google Calendar account. Set your calendar ID and adjust the filter rules to fit your naming style. Choose a check time that fits your workday. Teams often save 30 to 60 minutes per week and avoid missing Zoom links for client calls, sales demos, and remote check ins.
