Can I retrieve participants' email addresses from a meeting?

Last updated: October 24, 2024

The Recall bot does not have the ability to directly retrieve participants' email addresses from meetings. This limitation is due to privacy protections implemented by meeting providers.

Alternative approaches

While the bot cannot directly access email addresses, there are some alternative methods to obtain this information:

  1. OAuth integration: If end users authenticate with your app using OAuth, you may be able to access their email addresses through that connection.

  2. Calendar event integration: A popular workaround is to tie the bot to a calendar event and map participants to their corresponding attendees. However, please note that this method may not always provide a perfect match between meeting usernames and calendar invitation email addresses.
