Supported Data Types
We currently support the following high-level data types.
- message.created - A new message was received. Supports Microsoft and Google accounts.
- grants - When an email is added to an Integration or when the email's access is expired. A grant can expire when the refresh token for the account is no longer valid. The account will need to be granted access again. Supports Microsoft and Google accounts.
- conference.zoom.transcript - When a meeting recording is completed, send the transcripts to the connector of your choice. Supports Zoom accounts.
