Zoom Security - Using and Changing your Personal Meeting ID (PMI)

Posted on:  02/23/2021 Zoom Security - Using and Changing your Personal Meeting ID (PMI)

Your Personal Meeting Room is a virtual meeting room permanently reserved for you to access with your Personal Meeting ID (PMI). With your PMI, you can start instant meetings or schedule a meeting that uses your PMI. I find myself starting instant meetings with co-workers using the PMI. Your Personal Meeting ID doesn't change and stays static.
