Notion's AI Meeting Notes are fantastic, but there's a catch: the public REST API doesn't (yet) support reading content from the Meeting Notes block type, which means the native Zapier integration can’t access it either. If you try to retrieve a meeting note page via Zapier's standard Notion integration, you get the page metadata but not the actual transcript or summary. The content comes back as an "unsupported block type."
For a while, I was copying and pasting the meeting block content into another section of the page, running an automation to extract information, and then deleting the duplicate copy. Like an animal.
Then I remembered: Notion has an MCP server, that its MCP server is able to access content from Meeting Note blocks, and that Zapier has an action that lets you to use any remote MCP server within a Zap.
Zapier's MCP Client action lets you invoke tools from any MCP server directly within a Zap. Instead of using Zapier's standard Notion integration, I use the MCP Client to call Notion's notion-fetch tool, which returns the complete meeting note content, including the full transcript and the AI summary.
The downstream use case of this for me is to be able to pass the full transcript and summary to an Agent, which then goes and extracts follow-up items and adds them to Linear, where I track all my deliverables.
