Hey,

When you create a scheduled meeting, for how long is it valid?

For example, if I schedule a meeting in one hour, for how long the join\_url link will work?

Thanks!

Hi Franco,

&nbsp;

The link should work indefinitely… However the link is not very useful after a meeting has already taken place and ended by the host.
