Step 1 of 4Open Plugins

The walkthrough uses the original ChatGPT web plugin captures. After connecting, open Codex in the desktop app and start a new task with ApexGenius. A ChatGPT web connection does not verify Codex access.

A public ApexGenius plugin listing is not verified. Use a plugin shared with you or one you created, subject to your account and workspace policy.

Meeting spaces

Full API

  • google_meet_requestCall any Google Meet API endpoint, including changes to meeting spaces.

You choose what Codex can use

When you approve Codex, pick Full access, Read only, or Custom. Read only allows the Read operations and nothing else. Custom picks apps and tools one by one.

Limits in Google Meet

  • · The connected Google account decides which meetings, recordings and transcripts can be read.
  • · Transcripts hold what people said. Read them only when the task needs them.
  • · Enabled writes run immediately. Turn a tool off to block calls.
  • · Disconnecting stops future access. It does not remove a meeting link already created.

What it looks like in Codex

An illustrative read-only request and response. Your results come from the account and dates you choose.

Questions people ask first

How do I connect Google Meet?

Open Google Meet in ApexGenius Connections, choose Connect, and sign in with the Google account whose meetings you want to read.

Can my AI read meeting transcripts?

Yes, when Google saved a transcript and the connected account can see it. Turn the transcript tools off if your AI does not need them.

Can my AI download recordings?

No. It can list a meeting’s recordings, but it does not download the video.

Can my AI start or join a call?

No. It can create a meeting link, which invites nobody and starts no call. The full API tool is marked destructive. Enabled writes run immediately. Turn a tool off to block calls.

Can I start with read-only access?

Yes. Choose Read only when you add your AI agent, and the create and full API tools never reach its tool list.
