How to turn off Summary using the chat function:

You can also remove the notetaker from your meetings by using the chat function in Zoom, GMeet, or Microsoft Teams.

Note: "/xena leave" is currently only supported with Microsoft Teams for Enterprise; personal Microsoft Teams accounts do not have this feature.

After the meeting starts, you and your attendees will be notified that the meeting is being recorded in the chat window of the conference system.

To remove the notetaker, any participant can simply type "/xena leave" in the chat. To resume recording, hit the record button in the Xembly Web App or Extension.
