Zoom - Cancel/Reschedule a Meeting

Anytime you schedule a meeting, a Meeting ID is generated. If you export the meeting to your calendar, the join instructions are automatically pasted to the calendar invitation. 

You can edit or add to the pre-populated invitation text that is in your calendar invite to match your needs, such as providing more information, or a link to your privacy policy. 

Note: Any edits to a meeting that is currently in progress will not take effect. The meeting must be ended and restarted for the changes to take effect.
