Folders are currently only available on Granola desktop apps (macOS and Windows) but this is something we’re working on for iOS. To create a folder, open the sidebar and hit the + button. Choose whether you want a shared or private folder.
  • Shared folders are visible to everyone in your team* when they ‘Browse folders’, and anyone can choose to join your folder.
  • Private folders are only visible to you and people you explicitly share the folder with.
You can always change folder permissions later - for more on sharing folders, check out the full article. Folder discovery and Slack integration for folders are exclusive features for customers on our Business or Enterprise plans. image.png Give your folder a description to give teammates context on what’s in the folder, and to allow Granola Chat to focus on the insights that matter.

​
Add your notes

Just click Add to folder from your list of notes, or drag and drop your notes into folders in your sidebar. Notes can be added to as many folders as you need, allowing you to organise your notes in any way: topics, projects, types of meetings, clients or however you see fit!

​
Auto-adding recurring meetings to a folder

If you add a note from a recurring meeting (e.g. a weekly standup) to a folder, Granola can ask whether to auto-add all future instances of that meeting to the same folder. That way, every new note from that series goes into the folder automatically. To turn on auto-add for a recurring meeting:
  1. Add a note from the recurring meeting to a folder (via Add to folder or drag and drop).
  2. When the “Auto-add future meetings?” prompt appears, click Auto-add.
  3. All future notes from that recurring meeting will be added to that folder automatically.
To stop auto-adding (or change which folder is used):
  • Stop auto-adding: Open the folder picker for a note in that recurring series and remove the note from the folder (uncheck the folder). That removes the auto-add rule for that recurring meeting.
  • Use a different folder: Remove the note from the current folder as above, then add it to the new folder and choose Auto-add when prompted if you want the new folder to receive future instances.

Granola Chat about your folder

You can now use Granola Chat to chat with folders to uncover insights from across a focused set of meetings. Ask a question, write a memo, get an analysis or spot themes - Granola Chat uses best-in-class reasoning models, which we’ve found to be able to do detailed analysis across large numbers of meetings. Leave Granola on Auto to pick the strongest option for long-range reasoning, or switch the dropdown to your favorite model whenever you like. image.png

Share, share, share

Now that you’ve got notes in your folder, share it with anyone you need - hit the ‘copy link’ button in the top right, or set your sharing settings and link permissions from the three dots menu > Sharing settings. image.png You can share a link with anyone, even if they don’t use Granola yet - with the right permissions, they’ll be able to view the notes you’ve shared on the web and use Granola Chat in exactly the same way they would within the Granola app. Collaborators who open the folder in the Granola desktop app get access to the full meeting transcript. Anyone using the web link can view and interact with the summarised notes only; transcripts are not available when viewing shared notes or folders on the web. They can also sign up to Granola in just a couple of clicks, and instantly start collaborating in your new shared folder.
