Prerequisites

• Node.js 18+ installed

Setup

1. Install Dependencies

npm install
# or
pnpm install

2. Create a Slack App

1. Go to https://api.slack.com/apps and click "Create New App"
2. Choose "From scratch" and give your app a name
3. Select your workspace

3. Configure Slack App Settings

Basic Information

• Under "App Credentials", note down your "Signing Secret"

OAuth & Permissions

• Add the following Bot Token Scopes:

  • chat:write
  • users:read
  • users:read.email

• Install the app to your workspace and note down the "Bot User OAuth Token"

4. Set Environment Variables

Create a .env file in the root of your project with the following:

# Slack Credentials
SLACK_BOT_TOKEN=xoxb-your-bot-token
SLACK_SIGNING_SECRET=your-signing-secret

# OpenAI Credentials
OPENAI_API_KEY=your-openai-api-key

# Zoom Webhook Secret
ZOOM_WEBHOOK_SECRET_TOKEN=your-zoom-webhook-secret

ZOOM_ACCOUNT_ID=your-zoom-account-id
ZOOM_CLIENT_ID=your-zoom-client-id
ZOOM_CLIENT_SECRET=your-zoom-client-secret

Replace the placeholder values with your actual tokens.

5. Configure Zoom Webhook & OAuth App

1. Go to the Zoom App Marketplace
2. Create a new Server-to-Server OAuth app:
   • App Name: Your App Name
   • App Type: Server-to-Server OAuth
   • Scopes needed: recording:read, meeting:read:past_meeting
   • Note down your Account ID, Client ID, and Client Secret
3. Configure Webhook in the same app:
   • Event Subscriptions enabled
   • Add the following event: recording.transcript_completed
   • Set the endpoint URL to: https://your-app.vercel.app/api/notification
   • Save your webhook secret token

6. Deploy your app

Deploy to Vercel:

1. Push your code to a GitHub repository
2. Create New Project in Vercel
3. Import your GitHub repository
4. Add your environment variables
5. Deploy

How It Works

1. When a Zoom meeting recording is processed, Zoom sends a webhook to your endpoint
2. The bot downloads the transcript
3. The transcript is cleaned and formatted
4. GPT-4o generates a structured summary
5. The summary is sent privately to the meeting host via Slack
6. The host can then share the summary with their team

Summary Format

Each summary includes:

Topic: [Meeting Topic]
Overview: [1-2 sentence summary]
Takeaways: [3-5 bullet points]
Action Items: [1-10 specific action items]
