Granola exposes a public API for personal accounts. Yuzu uses your API key to poll for new notes and pulls the transcript, summary, and attendee list for each one. No webhook configuration is needed. Auth method: Personal API key.

Prerequisites

  • A Granola account on the desktop app (the API is exposed there).
  • Permission to create a personal API key.

Setup

1

Open Yuzu Settings → Integrations

Go to Settings → Integrations, click Connect Notetaker, and choose Granola.
2

Create a Granola API key

Open the Granola desktop app → Settings → API → Create new key → select Personal API. Copy the key.
3

Paste the key into Yuzu

Yuzu validates the key against https://public-api.granola.ai/v1/notes before saving. Email is optional — the API key already identifies the account.
4

Confirm the connection

Once the key validates, Yuzu starts a background sync of the last 7 days of Granola notes. You’ll see meetings appear in your transcripts list within a few minutes.
Granola is polling-based, not webhook-based. Yuzu pulls new notes on a schedule, so transcripts may take a few minutes longer to appear than with Fireflies or Fathom.

What gets pulled

For each Granola note, Yuzu imports:
  • The full transcript reconstructed from transcript[] entries (microphone vs. speaker labels).
  • Title, calendar event metadata (organizer, invitees, start/end time), attendees.
  • Granola’s summary_text and summary_markdown.
  • Action items where present.

Historical sync

From the connected state, click Sync Meetings and pick Last 7 days, Last 2 weeks, or Last 4 weeks to backfill notes. Existing notes won’t be duplicated.

Troubleshooting

Granola’s API returns 401 for invalid keys. Most often this means the key was created for a workspace that doesn’t have personal API access. Recreate the key as Personal API in the Granola desktop app and try again.
Granola is polled, so new notes can take a couple of minutes. If a meeting still isn’t visible after that, click Sync Meetings → Last 7 days to force a refresh. Check the activity log for any sync errors.
Granola distinguishes microphone (you) from speaker (everyone else) but doesn’t label individual external participants. This is expected.
Disconnect and reconnect Granola in Yuzu with the new key. The old key stops working immediately on Granola’s side.
