Prerequisites
- A Granola account on the desktop app (the API is exposed there).
- Permission to create a personal API key.
Setup
Open Yuzu Settings → Integrations
Go to Settings → Integrations, click Connect Notetaker, and choose Granola.
Create a Granola API key
Open the Granola desktop app → Settings → API → Create new key → select Personal API. Copy the key.
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.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_textandsummary_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.
