# Auto Join Mode
The **Auto Join Mode** feature allows Meemo to automatically join and record meetings from your connected Google Calendar. This setting ensures that meetings scheduled under your organization’s calendar are synced seamlessly, allowing Meemo to start recording without manual input.
## Connect Google Calendar
To set up Auto Join Mode, you need to connect your organization's Google Calendar through the **Preferences** page. Please note this setting is **only accessible by Admin users**.
1. Click your **profile name** on the top-right corner of the dashboard.
2. Select **Preferences** from the dropdown menu.
3. On the Preferences page, choose **Calendar Integration**, click **Connect Google Calendar**.
When you click **Connect Google Calendar**, a Google authorization window will appear.
1. Choose the **Google account** whose calendar you want to sync.
2. Click **Allow** to grant permission for Meemo to access your calendar.
Once connected, you will see a confirmation message such as **“Calendar connected and sync started!”**.
Your connected calendar email will be displayed, along with the following options:
* **Sync Now** – Manually synchronize your calendar events with Meemo.
* **Disconnect** – Disconnect the currently linked calendar.
## View Upcoming Meetings
After successfully connecting your Google Calendar, your upcoming meetings will appear on the **right side of the Dashboard** under **Upcoming Meetings**.
This section displays all meetings scheduled in your connected calendar, and Meemo will automatically join them.
## Trigger Auto Join
1. Create or open the meeting invite in Google Calendar.
2. Add the correct Meemo email as a participant:
* **CATAPA**:
* **DevSecOps**:
* **GLAIR**:
* **GLC**:
3. Save the calendar event, so the invitation is sent to that email.
4. Meemo detects the meeting from the connected calendar and will auto-join.
**Auto Join rules:**
* Meemo will join meetings **1–2 minutes before** the start time.
* The Meemo email must be invited **at least 5 minutes before** the meeting starts.
* If you want to invite Meemo **less than 5 minutes before** the start time or **during the meeting**, you can [paste the meeting url in Meemo](https://gdplabs.gitbook.io/meemo/application-ui/choose-meeting-source#meeting-platform-integration).
## Disconnect Google Calendar
If you wish to remove the connected calendar:
1. Click **Disconnect Calendar**.
2. A confirmation pop-up will appear.
3. Click **Disconnect** to confirm.
Once disconnected, your calendar will no longer sync with Meemo, and automatic meeting joins will stop.
