Lock down a meeting
Make a sensitive meeting private, so only its host and the admins who attended can see it.
Last updated Nov 10, 2026
Lock a meeting to keep it to its privacy circle, for example a performance conversation or a board prep.
Who can do this: the privacy circle: the meeting's host, plus org admins and the org owner who attended it. The host is the organizer, or the cadence owner if the organizer isn't a Brev user.
To lock a meeting:
- Open the meeting.
- Open the three-dot actions menu at the top and choose Lock down meeting.
- In 'Lock down meeting?', click Lock down.
What locking changes #
- No one outside the circle can see the meeting: not attendees, viewers, or admins who weren't in it.
- Slack and email recaps go to the host only.
- Goal and view insights that referenced the meeting are marked stale until they're regenerated.
- An org admin who didn't attend may see the menu entry, but Brev refuses the lock.
- A host with the Observer role can't lock the meeting.
Unlock a meeting #
- Open the three-dot actions menu at the top of the meeting and choose Unlock meeting.
- In 'Unlock meeting?', click Unlock.
Insights that went stale while it was locked stay stale until they're regenerated.
