How Yandex Telemost Link Expiration Works
Conference links in Yandex Telemost, like most modern video conferencing systems, have a limited expiration time for security and resource management reasons. The primary approach is to prevent unauthorized access to conferences and protect participant data.
Important: Specific link expiration times may vary depending on the service version and regional settings. Some sources indicate that the standard period is 24 hours, but in corporate versions, this period may be extended.

Several key factors determine how long your conference link will remain valid:
-
Account Type

-
Security Settings
