Is there a method for taking and saving private notes within Webex Meetings?
As I user, I would like the ability to take private notes regarding matters discussed on a call within the system without sharing those notes with other attendees. These notes would then be accessible within my account in the future. I understand recording is possible, but there are times where call length makes it inconvenient to go back through content to retrieve certain information.
Additionally, you can also do the same thing with whiteboards, but the instructor/host has to allow permissions for users to be able to save. Otherwise the instructor can just download the whiteboard and email it.
Alternate strategy is designating a note taker. Designate a note taker
If the single note taker or closed captions option is set for a meeting, you can designate any participant or closed captionist to be the note taker. When scheduling a meeting, you can set the notes option, or a presenter can set the notes option during a meeting.
Step 1 On the Participants panel, select the participant you want to designate as note taker.
Step 2 Change their role as follows:
Windows: Right-click and then select Change Role To > Note Taker.
Mac: Select ctrl and then click; then select Change Role To > Note Taker.
A pencil indicator appears to the right of the participant's name in the participant list.
Note If you select another note taker or closed captionist, any notes or closed captions that the previous note taker or closed captionist published remain on each participant's Notes or Closed Caption panel. However, the new note taker or closed captionist cannot edit the existing notes or closed captions.
Manage and Take Notes
During a meeting, one or more meeting participants with access to the notes feature can take notes on the Notes or Closed Caption panel in the Meeting window. Only one participant performs closed captioning.
If all participants are allowed to take notes, they cannot publish their notes to others during the meeting. However, participants can save their notes at any time during the meeting.
The meeting host can select the single note taker during the meeting. A single note taker can publish notes at any time during the meeting or send a meeting transcript containing the notes to all participants.
If needed, the host can also select a closed captionist. A closed captionist can publish captions in real-time during the meeting and can also send a transcript containing the captions to all participants.
Note
If the meeting host or presenter has selected the option to allow participants to take personal notes, you can type your notes on the Notes panel in the meeting window

Learn how to manage the notes from your meetings and how to designate a participant to be a note taker or closed captionist.
There are some things to keep in mind before you start managing and taking notes:
If all participants are allowed to take notes, they cannot publish their notes to others during the meeting, but they can save them.
A single note taker can publish notes at any time during the meeting or can send a meeting transcript to all participants.
A closed captionist can publish captions in real time during the meeting and can also send a transcript containing the captions to all participants.
The notes feature is not available on the Mac.

The Notes panel is not as easy to find as Chat. You can find Notes under the "More Options" button when in a meeting. Like Ron S. mentioned, you can save those to your computer anytime, but it should ask whether you want to save your Notes before leaving or ending a meeting as well.
