# Get meeting

Read a meeting by ID. Returns item: null when no visible record matches.

POST https://api.brigg.app/v1/operations/meetings.GetMeeting

## Access & visibility

Allow `meetings.GetMeeting` on your API key. Resource read permissions: `core:Meeting`.

**Workspace access by default.** Private member data requires [approved member delegation](https://developer.brigg.app/authentication#member-delegation) through `Brigg-Act-As`; the key supplies permissions while private ownership and project boundaries remain enforced.

## Request fields

Send a JSON object with the following fields. Required fields must be included; omit optional fields you do not need.
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `id` | string | Yes | ID of a visible `core:Meeting` record. Find it with [meetings.ListMeetings](https://developer.brigg.app/reference/meetings/ListMeetings). Use the record's top-level `id`, not a business field or account ID. |

## Response

Returns **200 OK** with a JSON body.

`item: null` means there is no matching record visible to this caller. It does not reveal whether an inaccessible record exists.

Record metadata sits outside `data`. Timestamps `created_at` and `updated_at` are Unix milliseconds. Optional business fields may be absent; absence does not mean false or zero. A field accepts null only when its type includes null.

An ended meeting is not necessarily summarized yet. Summary fields can be absent while work is pending or when no summary is available; this response does not expose the reason.

Transcript text and recording URLs are not part of this model. Personal notes are a separate resource and retain the acting member's access rules.
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `item` | [MeetingRecord](#meetingrecord-response-item) or null | Yes | null when no such record |

### MeetingRecord · response.item

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `id` | string | Yes | Stable core:Meeting record ID. Keep this top-level value when reading or referring to this record. Available actions are linked under Next steps; an ID does not imply the resource can be edited. |
| `created_at` | number | Yes | Time the record was created, in Unix milliseconds. |
| `updated_at` | number | Yes | Time the record most recently changed, in Unix milliseconds. Use with overlapping windows for incremental reads. |
| `created_by` | string or null | Yes | Account that originally created the record, or null for a workspace/system-originated record. This is provenance, not its current owner or a Person record ID. |
| `private` | boolean | Yes | True for a member-owned private record. An API key needs approved delegation to that owner; false alone does not bypass resource grants or other access rules. |
| `data` | [Meeting](#meeting-response-item-data) | Yes | The record's fields. |

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `title` | string | No | Meeting title. May be absent when no title has been supplied. |

| `end_time` | number | No | Meeting end time in Unix milliseconds. May be absent before the meeting ends. |

| `calendar_event_id` | string | No | ID of a `core:CalendarEvent` record. Find it with [meetings.ListCalendarEvents](https://developer.brigg.app/reference/meetings/ListCalendarEvents) and use the top-level `id`. This is not an account ID or a display name. |
| `sharing_external` | boolean | No | Whether external attendees were identified when the meeting was prepared. This is not permission to share the meeting externally; absence means this fact was not recorded. |
| `call_direction` | string | No | Phone call direction, currently inbound or outbound. Absent for meetings without phone-call metadata. |
| `call_outcome` | string | No | How a phone call ended, including completed, no_answer, busy, declined, canceled or failed. This is an open string. |

| `custom_summary` | [object](#response-item-data-custom-summary) | No | Instructions and optional example used to generate a custom summary. This is configuration, not the generated summary. |

## Errors & retries

This operation reads data. It needs no idempotency key and can be retried after a transient failure.

For rate limits, follow the server’s retry guidance and back off. See [HTTP errors](https://developer.brigg.app/http#errors) and [safe retries and limits](https://developer.brigg.app/reliability).

| HTTP status | Code | What to do |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 400 | `invalid_json` | Send a JSON object with Content-Type: application/json. |
| 400 | `invalid_input` | Check the request fields and types. |
| 401 | `invalid_key` | The workspace API key is missing, invalid or revoked. |
| 403 | `forbidden` | Check the key’s operation and resource grants. If Brigg-Act-As is supplied, the key must be authorized to delegate to that member. |
| 404 | `not_found` | The requested operation or resource is not available to this credential. |
| 429 | `rate_limited` | Wait for Retry-After before retrying. |
