Starting an instant meeting

I frequently use instant meetings rather than scheduled for convenience, seeing clients several times a week. I had a problem with zoom, uninstalled and reinstalled it but it looks completely different and there is no obvious way of doing this anymore. Anyone know how to set up an instant meeting?

    It sounds like you are looking to use your PMI since the meeting ID is static/does not change unless you change it.

    I would recommend reviewing this: https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/203276937-Using-Personal-Meeting-ID-PMI-

     

    Also ensure that your "Use my Personal Meeting ID (PMI)" is checked to join your PMI when you click on "New Meeting"

     

    Hope it helps!

    Hello janetwinter

     

    To create an ad-hoc or instant meeting on your Zoom meeting client you have a couple of options...

     

    1. Lookup for the contact you want to meet with on your contacts or chat list and click meet

    2. Go to your Home tab on your Zoom Meeting application and hit the "New Meeting" button there, then invite participants or share the invite by your preferred method

     

    For more information you can check this
