Quick Answer

AI meeting notes in Confluence transcribe, summarize, and extract action items from meetings automatically. Connect your meeting platform, configure AI summarization, and share results with your team.

What you'll learn

1. How to connect meeting platforms to Confluence for automatic transcription
2. How to configure AI to extract decisions and action items
3. How to create standardized meeting note templates
4. How to turn AI-extracted action items into Jira issues

Meetings are where decisions get made, but the notes rarely get written. Someone volunteers to take notes, gets distracted by the conversation, and the team leaves with fragmented memories and no clear action items.

AI meeting notes solve this by automatically capturing, transcribing, and summarizing meetings. This guide covers how to set up AI meeting notes in Confluence, from transcription to follow-up.

## Why AI Meeting Notes Matter[​](#why-ai-meeting-notes-matter "Direct link to Why AI Meeting Notes Matter")

**Institutional memory.** Decisions, context, and rationale get captured automatically. New team members can read meeting history instead of asking "why did we do this?"

**Accountability.** Action items with assignees and deadlines are extracted automatically. No more "I thought someone else was doing that."

**Time savings.** The 30 minutes someone spends writing meeting notes after every meeting adds up to hours per week. AI handles this instantly.

**Consistency.** Every meeting gets the same format, same level of detail, same structure. No more varying quality based on who took notes.

## How to Set Up AI Meeting Notes in Confluence: Step-by-Step[​](#how-to-set-up-ai-meeting-notes-in-confluence-step-by-step "Direct link to How to Set Up AI Meeting Notes in Confluence: Step-by-Step")

### 1. Connect Your Meeting Platform to Confluence[​](#1-connect-your-meeting-platform-to-confluence "Direct link to 1. Connect Your Meeting Platform to Confluence")

**Option A: Atlassian Intelligence (native)**

1. Go to **Site Administration > Products > Atlassian Intelligence**
2. Enable **Meeting transcription**
3. Connect your calendar (Google Calendar or Outlook)
4. AI automatically transcribes meetings and creates Confluence pages

**Option B: Third-party integrations**

| App          | Platform          | Features                            |
| ------------ | ----------------- | ----------------------------------- |
| Grain        | Zoom              | Transcription, highlights, clips    |
| Fireflies.ai | Zoom, Teams, Meet | Transcription, action items, search |
| Otter.ai     | Zoom, Teams       | Live transcription, summaries       |
| tl;dv        | Zoom, Meet        | Recording, transcription, clips     |

**Setup for Grain:**

1. Install Grain from Atlassian Marketplace
2. Connect your Zoom account
3. Enable auto-sync to Confluence
4. Configure which meetings to transcribe

### 2. Configure AI Summarization Settings[​](#2-configure-ai-summarization-settings "Direct link to 2. Configure AI Summarization Settings")

Once transcription is enabled, configure how AI processes the content:

**Go to:** Site Administration > Atlassian Intelligence > Meeting Notes

**Settings to configure:**

* **Auto-summarize** — generate summary when transcription completes
* **Extract action items** — identify tasks, assignees, deadlines
* **Extract decisions** — capture key decisions and rationale
* **Extract follow-ups** — identify questions that need answers
* **Create Jira issues** — automatically create issues from action items

**Example output from AI summarization:**

```
## Summary

Team discussed Q3 roadmap priorities. Decided to focus on performance

improvements over new features. Budget approved for caching infrastructure.



## Decisions

1. Prioritize performance work in Q3 over new features

2. Allocate $20k for caching infrastructure

3. Move feature X to Q4 backlog



## Action Items

- @john: Research caching solutions by Friday

- @sarah: Update roadmap document with new priorities

- @mike: Schedule follow-up meeting for caching vendor demos



## Follow-up Questions

- What is the expected performance improvement from caching?

- Can we parallelize caching work with the current sprint?
```

### 3. Create Meeting Note Templates[​](#3-create-meeting-note-templates "Direct link to 3. Create Meeting Note Templates")

Standardize your meeting notes with templates:

**Template structure:**

```
# Meeting: [Title]

**Date:** {{date}}

**Attendees:** {{attendees}}

**Duration:** {{duration}}



## Agenda

1. [Topic 1]

2. [Topic 2]

3. [Topic 3]



## Notes

[AI-generated transcription and summary]



## Decisions

- [Decision 1]: [Rationale]

- [Decision 2]: [Rationale]



## Action Items

| Action | Assignee | Deadline | Status |

|--------|----------|----------|--------|

| [Task] | @[name] | [date] | Pending |



## Next Meeting

**Date:** [date]

**Topics:** [list]
```

**How to create the template:**

1. Create a new Confluence page
2. Click **... > Templates > Create Template**
3. Paste the template structure
4. Save with a descriptive name
5. Set as default for meeting notes pages

### 4. Share and Follow Up on Action Items[​](#4-share-and-follow-up-on-action-items "Direct link to 4. Share and Follow Up on Action Items")

AI-extracted action items need follow-up to be effective:

**Automatic Jira issue creation:**

1. Configure Atlassian Intelligence to create Jira issues from action items
2. Map action items to issue types (Task, Story, Bug)
3. Set default project and assignee rules
4. Enable notifications for new issues

**Manual follow-up workflow:**

1. Review AI-extracted action items in the meeting notes page
2. Verify assignees and deadlines are correct
3. Create Jira issues for important items
4. Link Jira issues back to the meeting notes page
5. Track completion in sprint planning

**Meeting notes with linked Jira issues:**

```
## Action Items

| Action | Jira Issue | Assignee | Deadline |

|--------|------------|----------|----------|

| Research caching | [PERF-123] | @john | Jul 5 |

| Update roadmap | [PLAN-456] | @sarah | Jul 3 |
```

### 5. Build a Meeting Notes Archive[​](#5-build-a-meeting-notes-archive "Direct link to 5. Build a Meeting Notes Archive")

Organize meeting notes for easy retrieval:

**Space structure:**

```
Meeting Notes/

├── Team Standups/

│   ├── 2026-07/

│   │   ├── 2026-07-01-standup.md

│   │   ├── 2026-07-02-standup.md

│   │   └── ...

├── Sprint Planning/

│   ├── Sprint 23/

│   └── Sprint 24/

├── Retrospectives/

│   ├── Sprint 22/

│   └── Sprint 23/

└── Project Meetings/

    ├── Q3 Planning/

    └── Vendor Reviews/
```

**Page properties for search:**

Add metadata to each meeting notes page:

```
---

meeting-type: standup

date: 2026-07-01

team: engineering

project: PERF

---
```

**Search examples:**

* `meeting-type = standup AND date >= 2026-07-01`
* `project = PERF AND meeting-type = planning`
* `team = engineering AND meeting-type = retrospective`
