Update a Meeting description without sending update

When I book a meeting through meetings or in my google calendar, it shows up on the person't Hubspot profile. After the meeting takes place I want to go back and add notes to that meeting. If I do this, I have to save and send updates to everyone. 

 

To get around this I end up logging the meeting seperately, and it's duplicated on their profile.  Please make it so I can edit past meeting without updating everyone!

Hey @monmc thanks for the post!

 

Can I ask if there is a particular reason why you/your team don't use the Notes tool on the contact record to record meeting details? You are able to pin these notes (as depicted below) as well as @mention any CRM users you'd like to notifty

These details will not be viewed by your leads/customers.

The new "Team notes" property on meeting activities is now live to all portals. This property will never sync to the calendar invite.

That goes for any other update in the meeting! Title, attendees, time, outcome etc. I don't understand why we can't save changes without sanding updates to all attendees...

This post clearly hasn't been "closed out" - this is still a problem. In addition to meeting notes, I want to change the OUTCOME from "Scheduled" to something else without sending my customer/lead an update to the calendar invite. This is a problem.

Since this has been closed, where is the correct place to continue asking for the ability to update meetings in HubSpot without sending an email to everyone?

I agree - this is still an issue. Same behavior happens with a meeting posted by Fathom (from a group Zoom meeting). I cannot attach a file or update notes without a meeting invite going out again to my attendees AFTER the meeting. This makes us look bad in front of our clients!

Hello, I can see that this idea is delivered but any time I want to modify the meeting it sends the information to the atendees. Is it really delivered ?

Any amendment to time/date will be sent to the attendees however you can now add notes in the “Team Notes” section without any update being sent to the attendees.

Hope this helps.

Any news on this? We need to update the duration of the meeting, after the meeting happens without notifying the attendees.

Where is this feature??????

Is there any news regarding this feature? We need to update the meeting description without notifying attendees so that we can use this information to filter meetings. Since meetings can only be filtered and analyzed based on outcomes, types, titles, descriptions, and duration, we've found this "solution" to add more vital information to our reports.

To be more specific: we need to specify which product the meeting was about, information that is only available after the meeting. Since the Teams Notes are not filterable, we must modify the Meeting Description to include snippets with our product names, all without notifying the attendees. Thanks!

Plus 1 to this thread. It does not make sense that updating a "Scheduled" meeting to completed or adding notes to that activity record would trigger an update to the user. There has to be a solution to this problem.

This is critical to our processes as well. I thought it was fixed considering the 'delivered' status on this idea but sounds like the issue persists. Is it a bug that @hubspot needs to jump on? Terrible experience if this has unexpectedly been happening.

Our process also includes a post call update on the meeting outcome (obviously post call), and the Meeting Description or call type as well. All of this is only relevant to an internal user, not the prospects, customers or other attendees. What's the point of auto sending a notification? Why not put that control in our hands like other tools do? A simple check box of 'notify attendees' being unchecked by default would work too. Anything to make it clear what an editing action is or is not going to do (and ability for that to align with the preference of the person doing the editing)
