How matching works

## Matched to the tasks you already have

Before creating anything, note1 searches the target's open tasks and those closed in the last 30 days, and judges whether one already tracks the same work.

### Already tracked

If an existing task covers the action item, note1 links it instead of creating a duplicate. Motion has no comments API, so linked tasks get no comment.

### Possible match

When a match is uncertain, note1 shows it as a suggestion in note1. You approve it with one click, or ignore it.

### New work

Action items with no match become new tasks in Motion when auto-create is on, which is the default. With it off, they appear as "create" suggestions instead.

Choose Suggest, where matches wait for one-click approval in note1, or Auto-link, where strong matches link automatically and weaker ones become suggestions.

What lands in Motion

## What lands in Motion

A new task carries the context from the meeting, so the person doing the work does not need to replay the call.

### Title and description

The action item text becomes the task title, and its description comes along.

### Owner and quote

The owner's name, the supporting quote and who said it.

### Link to the meeting

A link back to the meeting in note1, with the full transcript and summary.

## Closed work flows back into note1

About once an hour, note1 checks linked tasks. When one is closed in Motion, note1 can show a "Possibly done" proposal on the action item, close the item automatically, or do nothing. Your team admin chooses which. Rejected proposals are not repeated.

Setup

## Connect Motion in three steps

[Open Team integrations](https://note1.ai/dashboard/team/integrations)

1. Get a Motion API key

   In Motion, create an API key. A team admin pastes it into Team, then Integrations, then Motion. It is connected once for the whole team.

2. Pick a workspace

   Choose the Motion workspace that receives new tasks from meeting action items.

3. Choose how matching works

   Pick Suggest, where matches wait for one-click approval, or Auto-link, where strong matches link automatically and weaker ones become suggestions.

Good to know

## Motion specifics

### Connects with an API key

Motion uses an API key instead of OAuth. The admin adds it once for the team.

### No comments on linked tasks

Motion has no comments API, so when note1 links an existing Motion task, it cannot add the meeting quote as a comment.

### No assignee

note1 creates Motion tasks without an assignee. The owner's name is in the task.

### One\-way sync

Sync goes from note1 to Motion. Editing an action item in note1 after the task exists does not update the task, and closing it in note1 does not close the task.

### When items sync

Items sync after each meeting is processed. Manually added items sync when you save them. You can retry a single item, or use Sync all on a meeting.

## Frequently Asked Questions

[Support](mailto:support@note1.ai)

### How do I send meeting notes to Motion?

A team admin adds a Motion API key once and picks a workspace. After each meeting, note1 links action items to existing tasks or creates new ones. It sends action items, not the full meeting notes.

### How does note1 connect to Motion?

With an API key that your admin pastes into note1, not OAuth.

### Does note1 comment on existing Motion tasks?

No. Motion has no comments API, so linked Motion tasks get no comment. New tasks still include the quote and meeting link.

### Does note1 assign Motion tasks?

No. Tasks are created without an assignee. The owner's name is written in the task.

### Will it duplicate tasks I already have in Motion?

Before creating a task, note1 searches open tasks and those closed in the last 30 days, and judges whether one tracks the same work. Matches are linked or suggested.

### Does completing a task in Motion update note1?

About once an hour, note1 checks linked tasks. A closed task becomes a "Possibly done" proposal, closes the action item automatically, or does nothing, depending on your admin's setting.
