Reuse same link for multiple meetings

I have multiple meetings with the same group of people at various times. For simplicity, they would like me to give them one URL they can use for all the meetings.

 

What's the best way to do that? Can they use my Personal Meeting ID under Profile / Meeting?

    Hi KazuT

    The solution would be creating recurring meeting.

    Zoom allows you to schedule meetings with multiple occurrences so that each occurrence uses the same meeting ID and settings. You can schedule these meetings in daily, weekly, and monthly increments. You can also set a recurring meeting to be used at any time. 

     

    Scheduling a recurring meeting

    1. Sign in to the Zoom desktop client.
    2. Follow the steps to schedule a meeting.
    3. Make sure the Recurring meeting option is selected.
    4. In the Calendar, choose which calendar you want to save the meeting to.
    5. Click Save to open the calendar you have selected and set up your recurring meeting.
    6. Follow one of the sections below depending on your calendar selection.

    The dates do not follow a set weekly/monthly schedule...I create the events in my outlook calendar, and then just want to insert the same zoom link in each.

    How about using the same zoom link for all meeting to be scheduled with varying groups in the future

    You can manage Zoom links for varying groups using Salepager

    this would be a huge step forward for Zoom.  I just want to use zoom to create a link, not to replace my existing calendar system

    It's frustrating because you can't create a reoccurring meeting for the same days of the month but different weeks. For example, I'm trying to schedule a meeting on the first and third Tuesday of each month. There's no way in Zoom to do this, so you would think that we could use the same link for the meetings, but no, not that I can tell. All I see is a solution of scheduling two separate meetings with each having their own individual links. It seems like an easy fix that Zoom could accommodate. I can't be the only person on earth that has a monthly meeting for the first and third Tuesday or whatever day each month.

    Just follow my instructions for a meet any time meeting below, and put the link in the calendar invite.

    Zoom used to allow me to select "recurring meeting" but there was another box to check that said "at no set time." I have maybe a dozen different invitations that I'm still using with that set up. But I can't find it anywhere to use now to set up a new invitation.  Does anyone else remember this feature?   Is there anyway to recreate it?

    Yes, I figured it out. You need to be logged in on the web browser, not on the app on your computer. Then you click schedule meeting, once it opens the meeting scheduler you must click 'recurring meeting' (ignore the date and time for now), then in the Recurrence drop down menu right at the bottom you should see 'No fixed time', the date and time will then disappear and it will say 'meet anytime'.

    Thanks for sharing this; worked a treat. Can't believe it was so convoluted as its something I'm sure that many would use.

    I don't have that option... is that dependent on the version of zoom or the type of plan you have?

    in order to access this option, you have to do it through the browser, not the Zoom application. 

    Once created and indicated "No Fixed Time" you can then see it in the Zoom desktop app - not super intuitive, but it does exist. It only took me 20 minutes of looking around and seeing the interface ka_ci shared above to realize it was within the web browser.

    You can reduce the confusion over which Zoom link to use by ensuring your recipients have a calendar invitation so that they can join from their calendar with the correct link. You could alternative create a recurring Zoom meeting and adjust the occurrences to reflect different times of day and day of week. If you want to automate this there is a Zoom app, Salepager, for scheduling recurring Zoom meetings and sharing the correct link. You can also adjust individual occurrences to reflect different times.

    Yes, you can use your Personal Meeting ID (PMI) for all the meetings. In Zoom, your PMI is a unique, permanent link to your personal meeting room, and it can be used for multiple meetings.

    To do this, go to your Zoom profile and locate your Personal Meeting ID. You can share the PMI link with your group, and they can use it to join all of your meetings. Just make sure to adjust your settings, like enabling a waiting room or requiring a passcode, to maintain security, especially if the same link is being used for different sessions.

    It's a great way to simplify things for your participants, but remember to always monitor your meeting security to prevent unauthorized access.

    Since using a new Mac laptop, my accustomed modus operandi no longer works. On my old Mac, I used to be able to reuse the same link for multiple meetings. Not anymore. I've followed all the advice in this thread and elsewhere, but the link works just once and that's it. Something has changed, but I don't know what.

    Modus operandi: having checked the settings in my Profile via the browser as per this thread's advice, I then go to the Zoom Workplace and click on New Meeting, then menu Meeting > Copy invite link. That link works just once; after that, the next participant gets the message that the host (me) is in another meeting and cannot join.

    One of the many things I don't understand is the difference between an 'invite link' and the Personal Meeting ID link. The previous poster says the PMI can be used for multiple meetings, yet I'm accustomed to using the 'invite link' generated by Zoom, which, as I say, has worked in the past. Either way, neither method works for me.
