A kinder way to say “can you send the Zoom link”
Why it can fall flat
“can you send the Zoom link”
Without a meeting name, a time or a thanks, “can you send the Zoom link” can feel abrupt, as if you expect someone to handle your admin. Usually you just want one meeting's link, asked for kindly.

Hi Pallavi, could you send me the Zoom link for the 4 pm check-in? I can't find it in the calendar invite.

Fits a missing link in an invite, since it names the meeting and shows you already looked.

Hi Pallavi, I'm about to join but don't have the Zoom link. Could you text it to me? Thanks!
Boss · SMS
Helps when the meeting is about to start and chat or email may be too slow.

Hey Devon, do you have the Zoom link for tomorrow's 10 am review? I'd like to join a few minutes early.

Friendly and casual, and the reason for asking gives the request a purpose.

Hi Rohit, could you please send the Zoom link for Thursday at 2 pm? I'd like to have it saved before the call. Thanks, Lauren

Polite and clear for an external contact, and asking early means you aren't chasing at the last minute.

Hi Leila, just checking whether the Zoom link for Monday's kickoff has been shared yet. I can't see it on my side.
Client · Chat
Good when you aren't sure the link was ever sent, since it doesn't suggest anyone forgot.

Please post the Zoom link in the team channel before 11 so everyone can join straight away. Thank you!
Someone you manage · Chat
Clear and direct for someone you manage, with a time and a reason so it doesn't sound like an order.

Hello Anjali, thank you for scheduling Friday's interview. Could you send the Zoom link when convenient? I'd like to test my setup beforehand.
Recruiter / HR · Email
Suits a recruiter because it thanks them first and gives a sensible reason for wanting the link early.

Useful when the customer is hosting and you can't find their invite.
Examples
Hi Tomás, Thanks for confirming Wednesday's 11 am call about the delivery schedule. I can't see a Zoom link in the confirmation. Could you send it across when you have a moment? Thank you, Aisha
Hi all, the invite for the 3 pm planning call has no Zoom link. Could someone paste it here? Thanks!
What to avoid
- Sending a bare “Zoom link?” with no greeting, meeting name or thanks comes across as curt.
- Hinting that the other person made a mistake, as in “You forgot to add the link,” will put them on the defensive.
- If you can ask earlier, do it, and state the time if you can't.
- Leaving out which meeting you mean causes confusion when someone has several calls that day.
