Event-aligned schedule
Set the redirect to start shortly before the meeting and end afterward.
LINKTIMER GUIDE
Create a temporary link for a Zoom meeting or webinar
Use LinkTimer as a controlled sharing layer for a Zoom URL. You can distribute the LinkTimer address before an event, schedule its active window, and stop the redirect after the meeting ends.
What this option gives you
Clear destination
Recipients see that the destination belongs to Zoom before continuing.
Reusable management
Eligible owners can pause, edit, or reactivate the shared redirect without changing the Zoom meeting itself.
Practical use cases
Webinars
Distribute a branded temporary route that stops after a live presentation.
Interviews
Share a meeting route that is active around a defined interview window.
Office hours
Limit a recurring support or consultation link to staffed hours.
Private classes
Add a password and confirmed-open limit for a small instructional session.
How it works
Copy the Zoom URL
Use the official meeting or webinar invitation link.
Set the active window
Choose when the LinkTimer redirect should start and stop.
Apply Zoom's own security
Keep waiting rooms, passcodes, authenticated users, and host controls configured in Zoom as appropriate.
Important limitation
LinkTimer does not cancel the Zoom meeting, remove participants, change the meeting passcode, or replace Zoom's own security and waiting-room controls.
Frequently asked questions
Does expiration end the Zoom meeting?
No. It stops the LinkTimer redirect only.
Can attendees reuse the original Zoom URL?
Yes, if they obtain it and the Zoom meeting remains available.
Can I share the LinkTimer URL before the event?
Yes. A scheduled link can show that access is not active yet.
Should I still enable a Zoom passcode?
Yes. Use Zoom's own controls for meeting access; LinkTimer is an additional sharing layer.
