# Meetings MOC
Meetings are timestamped events with other people, where information is exchanged and collected. Meeting notes are intrinsically ephemeral. They're stored in a separate Space than other Umami notes (`Timestamps/Meetings`) and rarely reviewed. If there's information in a meeting that needs to be accessed later, it should be moved into a more evergreen note in the Umami folder. 

**Template:** [[Template, Meeting]]

```meta-bind-button
label: New Meeting
hidden: false
class: ""
tooltip: ""
id: ""
style: default
actions:
  - type: templaterCreateNote
    templateFile: Extras/Templates/Template, Meeting.md
    folderPath: Timestamps/Meetings
    fileName: TKTK
    openNote: true

```

## Meeting Notes

```dataview
TABLE file.cday as Created, summary
FROM "Timestamps/Meetings" and -#MOC
SORT file.cday DESC
```

I just updated the original tutorial post to use the Meta Bind plugin rather than Buttons. If anyone here was having issues with creating new meeting notes via the button, this should solve it. https://dannb.org/blog/2023/obsidian-meeting-note-template/

Also, in case anyone prefers to learn via video, I just turned this post into a YouTube video: https://youtu.be/Ud16HOQoS5Q

This is awesome. Thanks for writing it up, and sharing it. Video is great too.. make more :-)

I wanted to ask, perhaps a remedial question. I've modified this to my needs, except one thing I would love to change. I would love if the MOC could search for meeting notes in SUBFOLDERS. I want to move each meeting note into another folder. Company/CLIENT/Meetings

Where the Client folder will be numerous.

Can I place them MOC somwhere, and have dataview search the company folder, and subfolders of it to pull the meeting details ?

Thanks again for all that you do!!

@moshin34 ChatGPT is surprisingly good at making edits to Dataview tables. Give it the dataview table code from the template, along with your new requirements, and it should pop something out for you to try. If it doesn't work, keep playing with ChatGPT until it does. You can event copy/paste the dataview docs page for sources (https://blacksmithgu.github.io/obsidian-dataview/reference/sources/) and play around until you get it right.

Basically, you'll just need to edit the FROM part of the code based on either the directory structure you use, or if you want to use tags/links instead. My directory structure is different, so I'm not able to test myself, but ChatGPT is a friend when I'm trying to modify tables I find online to suit my purposes.

Hey Dan. Thats for the reply. I should have gone back and deleted it as I figured it out fairly quickly. Without AI! Score a much needed one for humanity! Thanks for the work you put in and how you share it. The videos were super helpful to me. I've been inspired (and assisted) to take my Obsidian game up several notches thanks to you. I owe you a coffee to be sure. Thanks again for the prompt response, and all that you do you. Cheers
