- Granola Business or Enterprise plan (Personal API required)
- API key in sops-encrypted
~/Brains/brain/.env.granola as GRANOLA_API_KEY=grn_...
- No additional dependencies (uses stdlib only)
Usage
python3 ~/.claude/skills/granola/scripts/granola.py <command> [options]
Commands
| Command | Description |
|---|
list | List notes from Personal API |
show <note_id> | Show note details (summary, attendees, optionally transcript) |
export <note_id> | Export note to Obsidian markdown (Fathom-compatible format) |
Options
| Option | Applies to | Description |
|---|
--format text|json | list, show | Output format (default: text) |
--after <ISO date> | list | Filter notes created after date |
--all | list | Paginate through all results |
--transcript | show | Include transcript in output |
--vault <path> | export | Obsidian vault path (default: ~/Brains/brain) |
--output <path> | export | Custom output file path |
Examples
List recent meetings
python3 ~/.claude/skills/granola/scripts/granola.py list
python3 ~/.claude/skills/granola/scripts/granola.py list --format json
python3 ~/.claude/skills/granola/scripts/granola.py list --after 2026-05-01
Show note with transcript
python3 ~/.claude/skills/granola/scripts/granola.py show not_5FkswTp4Omkpm5
python3 ~/.claude/skills/granola/scripts/granola.py show not_5FkswTp4Omkpm5 --transcript --format json
Export to Obsidian
python3 ~/.claude/skills/granola/scripts/granola.py export not_5FkswTp4Omkpm5
python3 ~/.claude/skills/granola/scripts/granola.py export not_5FkswTp4Omkpm5 --vault ~/Brains/brain
Output Format
Exported notes match Fathom skill format for consistency:
---
granola_id: not_xxxx
title: "Meeting Title"
date: YYYY-MM-DD
participants: ['Name 1', 'Name 2']
duration: HH:MM
source: granola
---
# Meeting Title
## Summary
{AI-generated summary}
## Transcript
**Speaker Name**: What they said...
Files saved as: Sessions/YYYYMMDD-meeting-title-slug.md
API Details
- Base URL:
https://public-api.granola.ai/v1
- Auth: Bearer token (Personal API key, never expires)
- Rate limits: 25 req burst / 5 req/sec sustained
- Important: API only returns notes with generated summaries — in-progress meetings won't appear
Known Limitations
- No live/in-progress access — notes appear only after Granola generates the AI summary
- No per-utterance speaker names — Granola provides
source (microphone vs speaker) and optional diarization_label. Export assigns meeting owner to microphone utterances
- Note IDs required — use
list first to get not_xxxx IDs, then show/export
Integration
- transcript-analyzer: After export, run transcript-analyzer on the output file for deeper analysis
- Fathom skill: Granola exports use the same frontmatter and transcript format as Fathom exports, so downstream tools work with both
