Meet-Slack status
Real-time Google Meet updates on Slack!
Currently, internal to Setu only!
Setup Meet-Slack using two simple steps
Integration time < 5
minutes
Step 1 — Slack app
-
Add the Meet-Slack app to your Slack
workspace by clicking the below "Add
to Slack" button
You may have to sign in to Slack if not already signed in. Sign in using your Setu credentials. -
Once installed, you will be
redirected to a page to generate a
Slack API key.
-
Click "Generate". This will generate
a Slack API key in this format,
xoxp-xxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxx-xxxxxxx
- Keep the tab open or save the key somewhere.
- If you fail to get an API key, install the Slack app again using above button.
Security
Do not share your API key with
ANYONE. It gives direct
access to set your status and change
your profile details.
If you believe your API key is
compromised or need to reset the key,
contact us and we will revoke it. You
can then generate a new API key.
Step 2 — Chrome Extension
- Install Meet-Slack status Chrome extension from the webstore
-
Open any
meeting link
from your calendar. The extension
will inform that a Slack API key is
required.
-
Open the Meet-Slack status extension
by clicking on the puzzle icon,
-
Search for an emoji you like
and select it
Please type full text of emojis (":P" will not work, "parrot" will work). You can find these names by hovering on emojis in our Slack workspace. -
Copy-paste the Slack API key
which was generated in Step
1 and save it
-
Search for an emoji you like
and select it
- The page should reload itself once you save the API key. If it does not work, try reloading the page again.
Success
-
If everything is setup successfully,
on any
Setu Google Meet Link
the extension will show a success
badge with further actions.
Your new cheat codes for Google Meet are
- CTRL + V to join a meeting (even on a Mac)
- CTRL + Q to exit a meeting (even on a Mac)
Bingo 🎉 Check your Slack status!
Optionally, you can disconnect status updates from the Google calendar bot, after you get this working. This is more real-time than the bot right? 😛
