How to Share a Zoom Meeting Link

This guide explains how to share a Zoom meeting link during an ongoing meeting as well as for a scheduled one. To share the link for an ongoing meeting, you will need to use the desktop application. For scheduled meetings, you can use either the desktop app or the web browser to share the link.

Visit https://www.zoom.com and sign in. Click Sign in at the top-right corner and enter your account details, or sign in via Facebook, Google, or SSO. Alternatively, you can use the desktop app, but the button locations may differ from the web interface.

Click on the Meetings tab. You will see the vertical menu on the left side of the page if using the web browser.

• On the desktop app, the "Meetings" option can be found in the horizontal menu at the top of the window.

Click on the meeting you wish to share (web interface only). The "Upcoming" tab will automatically display all the scheduled meetings.

• If using the desktop app, you won’t need this step as all scheduled meetings and their details are displayed on the "Meetings" page.

Click on the Copy Invitation button. This option is found to the right of the "Invite Link" title on the web page.

• A window will pop up with the invitation details if you're using the website.

Click on the Copy Meeting Invitation button in the web browser. This action will copy all the details into your clipboard.

• If you're using the desktop app, this is an automatic process and you won't see this step.

Share the copied invitation. You can paste the invitation into an email or a Facebook message to invite others to join the meeting.

Open Zoom and join the meeting. This is the application with a blue camera icon inside a circle, which you can find in the Start menu or in the Applications folder on Finder.

• You may have received an invitation to the meeting via email, or you have a link or code to join the ongoing meeting. Refer to how to join a Zoom meeting on Windows or Mac for further details.

Click on the Participants option. This is the icon of two people displayed in the middle at the bottom of the screen.

Click on the Invite button. This option is located at the bottom right corner of the screen.

Select a sharing method. You can click on "Copy Invite Link", "Copy Invitation", "Email", or "Contacts".

• The "Copy invitation" option will copy all the meeting details, while "Copy Invite Link" only copies the URL of the meeting.
• If you choose "Email", you will then select the email service (default, Gmail, or Yahoo) to use. Once the email service is chosen, you will be prompted to log in, and then an automatically generated email will open for you to add recipients for sharing the meeting link.
• Click on the "Contacts" tab to share the meeting with your contacts in Zoom. Simply select a contact and click Invite.

Share the copied invitation. You can paste the invitation into an email or message to send to your friends, inviting them to join the meeting.
