The Zoom platform enables you to schedule multiple occurrences of the same meeting, so that the same meeting ID and settings are used throughout each meeting. Meetings can be scheduled on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis, with the choice to repeat the session. A recurring meeting can also be set up for you to use at any time. There are 365 days after the meeting was last started before the meeting ID expires for recurring meetings.

You can check out our documentation on scheduling meetings for more information on the general meeting scheduling process, as well as the complete list of meeting settings.

It is possible to schedule recurring meetings in Zoom and later add these meetings to either your Google Calendar or your Outlook desktop. The instructions below provide detailed instructions and screenshots.
