Google Meet
Google Meet calls are a core signal in WorkSights, providing structured visibility into real meeting activity throughout the day. WorkSights ingests metadata for completed Meet sessions directly from Google's Admin Audit logs.
For connection steps, see Connecting Google Workspace.
What WorkSights Receives
WorkSights processes Google Meet metadata once a call ends. This includes meeting start time, end time, duration, organizer information, basic participant metadata (when available), and IP-based location. Video, audio, transcripts, chat messages, and meeting content of any kind are never received.
How Meet Activity Appears
Meet sessions appear as explicit call entries on the user's timeline. Calls reflect the actual start and end timestamps provided by Google rather than scheduled calendar times. WorkSights renders Meet calls using the meeting-external color palette, unless all attendees are internal users, in which case they appear as meeting-internal.
If the call is associated with a calendar event, WorkSights aligns the Meet session with the corresponding event metadata. Each call displays as a single continuous block reflecting real meeting duration.
Data Notes
Google Meet does not expose full attendee lists via Admin Audit APIs. Some calls appear with partial or anonymized participant metadata. Meet activity is logged only after a call ends, so calls do not appear in real time. Meeting titles are shown only when they can be fetched from an associated calendar event.
Troubleshooting
If Meet activity is not appearing as expected:
- Confirm the Google Workspace domain is connected and Meet is enabled in service-level controls.
- Check that the affected user exists in WorkSights and has been assigned a role.
- Meet activity is logged after a call ends, not during. Calls in progress will not appear until they are completed and processed.
- Attendee lists may be incomplete or partially anonymized due to Google API limits. This is expected behavior.
- For persistent issues, contact support via the in-app chat.
