    Zoom doesn't handle meeting details for sessions you are invited to, only those you schedule yourself. 

    A workaround would be to save those meeting details to your calendar system and integrate that calendar with your Zoom account, which would allow all of your upcoming meetings (created by you or something you were just invited to) are displayed in the desktop and mobile app (although not in the web portal).

    I also use Zoom Chat with myself, to keep notes of meeting details and other useful things. This means any device where I login has my notes.

    Any update on this? We are constantly invited for meetings and some are recurring meetings. It would be great if we can save those Zoom meeting ID and passcodes.

    I agree,  I attend a lot of meetings that I do not host, most of them recurring.  Because I use multiple devices I want to be able to log in to my Zoom account from any device and see what's scheduled. Although many of these meetings are on my calendar, the calendar entries don't always translate well across platforms. This is so frustrating.

    You tech people spend way too much time engineering features rarely needed or used and way too little time on the many essentials that go overlooked until enough people complain.  The problem with that approach is that most people will just tolerate the deficiency and defect to a competitor when when a better product arrives.  So, don't wait for the complaints to reach your threshold before taking action, would be my advice.

    On windows I extract the URL from the invitation and put a shortcut onto the desktop to it.   A double-click on the shortcut takes me all the way into the meeting.

    That’s great…but the point is it should be as simple a clicking a button on Zoom that’s says “save meeting”. Why a workaround? Super simple for zoom to integrate…just sayin….

    I am surprised that no one (especially the employee) mentioned that Zoom saves the 10 most current meeting ID's on each device.  Clearly not the solution folk are looking for but a half measure. On the app's Home page, there are four buttons, one of which is "Join".  Click on that and you get a popup window with fields to enter a meeting ID and Your Name.  The latter is pre-filled. The prior has a pulldown V. click on it and the last 10 meeting ID's will appear.

     

    This is, as I said, a half measure in that the password is not also saved.  Most of the time that was not needed or I remembered it.  Also a half measure in that this saves all meeting ID's so one you attend less often can get bumped off the bottom of the list.  And this only saves meeting ID's for meetings accessed by THAT device. You don't have access to that list from another computer/smart phone/etc.

     

    But it is a start.

    It does not do this, either anymore or on Linux.

    I ended up going to the "contacts" sections and creating a "Channel". Then I named the channel the meeting ID that I regularly join (and named it what it was). At least then I can copy and paste that meeting ID instead of digging through messages and finding the log in credentials. Should be a simpler solution on zoom's end I would think eventually.

    This Would Be a nice feature.  Many of the zoom sessions I join have the same ID and Pwd.  When the host changes it they email me the link.  I would be nice to save and update.

    My workaround is using Google Keep. It is cross-platform so no matter what device I am using it is always in sync. You can create links in your notes that will take you directly into the meeting.
