Personal Meeting ID & Personal Link

Personal meeting ID (PMI) and personal link are two ways to access your personal meeting room. Your personal meeting room is a virtual room that is permanently reserved for you. You can start it at any time or schedule it for future use. You can also schedule or start an instant meeting (not pre-scheduled) with your PMI.

Your PMI is part of your personal meeting URL; for example, https://zoom.us/j/5551112222. You can customize your 10-digit PMI.

  2. Click Profile.
  3. Next to Personal Meeting ID, click Edit.
  4. Enter a 10–digit ID.
  5. Click the check box if you want to use your PMI for instant meetings.

Custom PMI Restrictions

There are some restrictions for customizing your PMI. The number you choose must meet the following criteria:

  • Start with digits 2–9 (cannot start with 0 or 1)
  • Digits used as toll-free number prefixes are not allowed: 200, 300, 400, 500, 508, 600, 660, 700, 800, 803, 804, 807, 808, 809, 850, 855, 866, 877, 887, 888, 900
  • Must not repeat 3-digit groups such as 247 247 247x or x247 247 247
  • Must not repeat 3-digit groups such as 222 444 777x or x222 444 777

  • Must not use the same number consecutively five or more times such as 11111xxxxx, x11111xxxx, xx11111xxx, xxx11111xx, xxxx11111x, xxxxx1111
  • No sequential numbers such as 123456789x
  • Meeting IDs already in use are not allowed

Creating a Personal Link

A personal link is a customized URL associated with your personal meeting room that is five–40 characters in length. It must start with a letter and must only contain letters, numbers and periods (.).

Your personal link must be unique to you but cannot contain a common name and must not be in use by another Zoom user. Note that your personal meeting ID, not a personal link, is used in a meeting invitation.

  1. Sign in to the Zoom web portal.
  2. Click Profile.
  3. Select Customize (next to Personal Link).
  4. Enter the ID or desired personal link. It must start with a letter and contain only letters, numbers 0–9, and period.
  5. Click Save Changes.
