Recall.ai - Calendar Integration API for Meeting Recording

If you’re building tools that automate meeting recording and use data from calendar events, check out Recall.ai’s free Calendar Integration API. It connects with Google Calendar and Outlook to schedule meeting bots across Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams and more, linking transcripts and participant data to calendar events.

Recommended Android DAV client

We work closely together and test interopability with DAVx⁵ for Android, see https://www.davx5.com, so we can really recommend it! Together with DAVx⁵ we now have experimental support for per-event coloring by mapping the Outlook category color to the COLOR attribute of the event.

Install instructions

WARNING: Beginning with release 4.0.0 .NET framework 4.8 is the minimal requirement.

Download and extract the OutlookCalDavSynchronizer-<Version>.zip into any directory and start setup.exe. You can change the default install path, but you need to use a directory on the C:\ drive. If the installer is complaining about the missing Visual Studio 2010 Tools for Office Runtime, install it manually from Microsoft Download Link You should also update manually to the latest Visual Studio 2010 Tools for Office Runtime (Version 10.0.60912) if you have an older version installed, since some COMExceptions have been fixed.

Beginning with version 2.9.0 the default install location is ProgramFilesDir\CalDavSynchronizer\ and the installer remembers the chosen directory for the next updates. Also the install option to install for Everyone instead of the current user is working now for Outlook 2010 and higher, if you want to install the addin for all users on the current machine. For Outlook 2007 you can only install the addin for the current user.

We recommend updating to the latest .Net Framework but the minimal required version is .NET 4.8, which is not supported on Windows XP, Windows 8 or Windows Vista. If you need Outlook CalDav Synchronizer for Windows XP you can download a backport to .Net 4.0 from a forked project here, thanks to Salvatore Isaja for the awesome work!
