Getting started with Bubbles is simple. Here’s how to go from signing up to recording your first Bubble:

Step 1: Sign up or log in

  • You can sign up with Google, Microsoft, or your email address.

  • If your team already uses Bubbles, sign in with the same email domain your team uses. If configured by your admin, you will be prompted to join your team automatically.

Step 2: Join or create a workspace

  • If your coworkers already have a workspace setup for your team you may be prompted to join it, just select it and click “Join workspace”.

  • Or, click “Start a new workspace” to create your own.

Step 3: Connect your calendar

  • Connect Google or Outlook calendar so Bubbles knows which meetings to record.

  • If you’re not ready to connect a calendar yet, click “Skip for now” and you’ll be given the option to add your calendar later.

  • After that you will again get an option to connect the calendar but you can simply click the “Skip for now” option if you are not ready.

  • Now, you can just click “Try it free for 14 days” and then you can continue to use Bubbles.

  • You will now see the pop up to connect the calendar, but you still don’t want to connect. You can click “Skip for now” and then proceed.

Step 4: Explore your Home dashboard

  • You’re all done! If you successfully added your calendar, Bubbles will automatically join upcoming meetings with at least 2 participants (this includes the organizer) and a valid meeting link.

  • You can change which meetings Bubbles joins and customize your Notetaker via settings (click the gear icon on the top right).

From the Home tab you can also:

  • Click the Record screen to capture your first Bubble.

  • Or use Paste a meeting link to start recording a meeting.

  • Browse your content in the All, Meeting recordings, and Screen recordings tabs.

Good to know

  • You can change your live meeting settings and calendar connection at any time.

  • Joining an existing workspace means you’ll instantly have access to recordings placed in shared channels in your team.

  • Creating a new workspace gives you full admin control from the start.

Still stuck?

If you’re having trouble getting started:

  • Make sure you’re signing up with the right email (example: your work domain if your team already uses Bubbles).

  • Double-check your calendar permissions if Bubbles isn’t showing upcoming meetings.

  • Reach out to us at [email protected] with details about your signup issue or screenshots, and our support team will get you set up quickly.
