Welcome, friends, to our monthly episode of New in Nylas! 👋 The leaves are changing and it’s time to break out the pumpkin spice. 🍂 While you’re getting cozy, let’s take a look at Nylas’ latest updates.

Introducing summaries and action items for Notetaker

Section titled “Introducing summaries and action items for Notetaker”

Our Notetaker team has been hard at work cooking up something new! Now, when you invite a Notetaker bot to a meeting or set up your calendar sync you can specify that you want Nylas to create a summary of the meeting and a list of action items. Just set meeting_settings.summary and meeting_settings.action_items to true in your request and Nylas will do the rest. 🚀

Want to customize the information Nylas returns? No problem! You can include custom prompts for both the summary and action items. This lets you specify a format for the summary, how many action items you want in the list, and anything else that might suit your use case.

...
  "meeting_settings": {
    "action_items": true,
    "action_items_settings": {
      "custom_instructions": "Only return the 5 most important action items."
    },
    "audio_recording": true,
    "summary": true,
    "summary_settings": {
      "custom_instructions": "Return this summary in the MEDPIC sales methodology."
    },
    "transcription": true,
    "video_recording": true
  },
...
