What Gong permissions does Callmine request, and why?

Integrations / Gong·May 31, 2026·1 min·By Callmine Team

Callmine requests four read-only Gong scopes: basic call metadata, extensive metadata, transcripts, and user list. No write access.

TL;DR

Callmine asks for four read-only Gong scopes: api:calls:read:basic, api:calls:read:extensive, api:calls:read:transcript, and api:users:read. Nothing in Gong is modified, created, or deleted.

The four scopes

api:calls:read:basic

Lets Callmine list calls in a date range and read basic metadata — participants, duration, direction, start time. We use this to enumerate which calls fall inside the window you analyze and to power filter previews before a run starts.

api:calls:read:extensive

Lets Callmine read the full call record from Gong's /v2/calls/extensive endpoint, including any HubSpot deal context Gong has linked to the call. The deal context is what powers Callmine's HubSpot filters (stage, amount, owner, company size) without a separate HubSpot connection.

api:calls:read:transcript

Lets Callmine fetch the transcript text for each analyzed call. Transcripts are the primary input the analysis prompt evaluates — without this scope, Callmine can read metadata but cannot answer questions about call content.

api:users:read

Lets Callmine resolve Gong user IDs to display names and email addresses, so reports show the actual rep on each call instead of an opaque ID. We use this only to enrich call records for the UI and downloadable reports.

What we don't request

Callmine never asks for write scopes, scorecard scopes, or scopes covering calls outside your tenant. If a future feature needs broader access, Gong will surface a fresh consent screen — your existing grant stays narrow until you approve the new request.

§ Common questions

Frequently asked.

Does Callmine ever write to Gong?

No. Every scope Callmine requests is read-only. We do not create, update, or delete calls, users, or any other Gong resource.

Can I limit Callmine to a subset of these scopes?

Not today. Each scope maps to a feature the analysis pipeline depends on — dropping any of them would break a core path (no metadata, no transcripts, or no rep attribution).

Are scopes the same for OAuth and basic-auth?

Basic-auth credentials don't use scopes — they inherit whatever permissions the Gong user who created the key holds. We recommend a Gong user with read access to calls, transcripts, and users so the basic-auth path matches OAuth behavior.

Will Callmine ask for more scopes later?

If new features require additional access (for example, listing folders or fetching specific deal-linked recordings), we'll request them on a fresh consent screen — your existing grant won't silently widen.
