This doc walks through how you can export your meeting notes from Granola, including transcripts. Because the export contains your notes, summaries, and transcripts in a machine-readable format, it also serves as the way to satisfy a GDPR data portability request — see the Security, Privacy & Data FAQs for details.

How to export your notes

Click your workspace name in the bottom-left corner, then select Settings. Open Settings > Profile, then click Generate CSV to export your notes: image.png This will generate a CSV emailed to you within a few hours. The CSV includes the title, note summary, transcript, and other basic details for each note. The export is based on the workspaces you select and only includes notes you own in those workspaces. It includes your full note history, including notes older than 30 days that aren’t visible in the app on the Basic (free) plan. The export only includes notes that have a summary. Deleted notes and notes without a summary are not included. This means the number of notes in your export may be lower than the total count shown in the app.

Downloading your export

  • Sign in with the same account: When you open the link in the email, you’ll be asked to sign in to Granola in your browser if you aren’t already. Sign in with the same email address you used to request the export. If you’re signed into a different account, you’ll see “Make sure you’re signed in with the right account” — click Log out, then sign back in with the account that received the export email.
  • Download link expiry: The link in the email is valid for 24 hours. After that, the link will no longer work.
  • Regenerating an export: You can request a new export at any time. If your previous link has expired or you need a fresh file, go to Settings > Profile, click Generate CSV again, and choose your workspaces. Note: you can only create one export every 24 hours (per account). If you request another export within 24 hours of your last one, you’ll need to wait until the 24 hours have passed before generating a new export.
Data export is enabled by default on Business and Basic plans. On Enterprise plans, data export is disabled by default, and only Enterprise workspace admins have access to the Allow exporting data toggle in workspace settings to enable or disable it for their members: image.png

Can workspace admins export notes for the whole team?

No. There is no company-wide or admin-level export. Each person’s export only includes their own notes — workspace admins cannot export other members’ notes. If a team member has left your organization, any notes they shared to a team folder are still accessible in that folder. Their private (unshared) notes are not accessible to admins or other team members. If you need a departed employee to export or share their own notes, you can temporarily re-add them to the workspace so they can do so — see Workspaces for details.
