# Take shared meeting notes

Write shared notes on a meeting. Notes start with the calendar invite's description.

Every meeting has one set of shared notes. Use them for the running notes of the meeting.

Everyone who can open the meeting reads the same notes. Anyone who can edit it can change them, so keep private material out.

To write notes:

1. Open the meeting from [Cadences](https://help.brev.io/cadences-list/).
2. On the **Agenda** tab, click into the **Notes** section. The formatting toolbar appears.
3. Type, or paste or drag in an image.

> **Tip: Success check**
>
> A couple of seconds after you stop typing, the Notes header shows when your notes were saved.

## Notes from the calendar invite {#from-the-invite}

- When a meeting's notes are empty, Brev fills them with the calendar invite's description, if it has one.
- Your own edits are kept. A later change to the invite never overwrites notes you typed.
- The agenda and the summary never come from the invite.

## Copy the notes {#copy-notes}

Click the copy button in the Notes header (tooltip 'Copy notes'). It appears once the meeting has notes.
