Thank you. You were very clear and concise.

Thank you for this!

Thanks for your info!!! I wandering how to make a colorful/emojis pamphlet?

Hi! Tank You for explanation. I have a few Question about the privacy of zoom. First I understood that when u crate license account in zoom you can add co-host and alternative host. Then if I gave them the same license account as me for both of them how they can secure safely my account? I think they have the same access us me and they can also mange my setting detail? Thank you, am witting your answer.

Good morning! A few questions. If you are doing a Zoom webinar, can you add a co-host if it is activated in your account? Mine is currently not set up for co-hosts - I would only use this for webinars. I am an admin and I am assuming since I do meetings on behalf of my manager, his account settings would need to change for him to be able to add a co-host to a regular Zoom meeting - can an Alternative Host (AH) add a co-host? And I am assuming that if a host had to leave the meeting and designated a co-host the webinar or Zoom would not close. I designated 2 AHs to a Zoom webinar under my account and neither participant received an AH invitation - the panelists did receive a Panelist invite. There is an option to send an invitation to AHs, and I did that (multiple times) but, again, they did not receive invitations of any kind. I removed them as AHs and designated them as Panelists and they received an invitation almost immediately. Also if I set up an AH for a regular meeting on behalf of my manager and the manager left the meeting and the meeting suddenly ended, is it because the AH is not logged in as an AH? I was in the meeting when this happened but I am not listed as an AH - I set up the meetings on behalf of my manager. I am not sure what happened. Leave vs End could have been a problem too but I would appreciate an answer to that question!

is this feature available in the pro individual account or only in business accounts?

Good morning! How to know who among the zoom host and co/host remove a participants?

Thanks so much for this video. I was searching and googling trying to find the terminology for what I would like to do. Ideally I want people in my non profit group to be able to host the meetings so I don't have to be at everyone. However I don't want them to be able to make certain changes for example "change my plan" as it is my email that is tied to this account. Question: So if I add them as a alternative host and put in their email address I assume they will be prompted for a password when they sign in? How is that password assigned? as I don't want to mine to them. Thanks in advance and thanks again Ed.

Hi Ed. So sorry for the delayed response. To be able to add someone as an alternative host they would have to have their own Zoom account in you organization's Zoom account. They would not have access to your plan or your account.

Can an alternate host start a recording for a meeting? Having some trouble with this.

Hello, if you created a Zoom account already and afterwards would like to set up an Alternative Host is that allowed?

hi, can all of my alternative hosts have a meeting at the same time? for example 3 hosts for 3 individual meeting?

hey i have a question , me and a friend started a meeting together i bought an account he bought an account . he has me licenced in his account . why cant i start the same meeting from my own account ? also i cannot believe zoom will not give me live help .. even after paying the 150 dollars they said my account doesnt come with live help .. what a bunch of hmmmm

Have Qs: How can I add an alternate host to an EXISTING meeting series? Thx for the great explanation on this vid.

If it is a reoccurring meeting, then you would have to edit all occurrences and then you should have to option to add an alternative host.

Thanks for the video. I have three question. How would we add a licensed user to the same account? When they log into the account do they use the same email address and password as the existing account? Do they have access to the meeting ID that we always use? Thanks

Thanks! In the admin portal you can add users with your organizations domain. Yes, you can add them to your organization using the email address they currently use as long as it’s within your organization I believe. Yes, they should have access to the meeting IDs you currently use.

Thank you very much for this video.. Can a co-host push the button ‘Close All Rooms’? If yes, can we disable it somehow? We are going to organize a zoom meeting with around 1000 participants and 40 co-hosts. This with 13 break-out rooms. The participants need to decide by themselves which room they want to join.

In looking at Zoom documentation, it looks like both the host and cohost can assign, start, and end breakout rooms. I went though our settings and couldn’t find an area to disable this.

Thank you for the video! Just one question: the person I would like to make a co-host is not in the paid version. Is it possible though? Thanks.

You can only add a cohost if they are in your district account.

Say you have two meetings scheduled back to back and you are running late on the first one, can an alternative host go ahead and open the next meeting while I as host am still finishing up the last meeting? Or will Zoom prevent the opening of the next meeting while the last one is still in progress? Thanks.

I believe you would have to transfer ownership to the co-host before you left the meeting to be able to start the next meeting.

Honestly, I’m not sure 🤷🏻‍♂️ I’ve read support pages where it calls them an “alternative host” and then “alternative hosts” and that came from Zoom itself so I would assume more than one but I’m not 100% sure. Sorry I don’t have a definitive answer.

This is informative but I am wondering, Is it possible to set up zoom meetings for others in the company without starting the meeting and also without making them an alternate host?

I think the only way you can setup a meeting where someone else can start it is by making them an Alternative Host.

Once you add someone as an alternative host does that meeting show up for them on their list of meetings? Can they start it from their dashboard or it has to be from the email they get?

From my understanding, it will not show up on their list of meetings and they have to start it from the email they receive.

I have made several people alternate hosts. They don't end up being able to run a meeting when I'm not there. They don't have a security tab. Only I have it. Do they have to sign in on an email that says they are alternative host with the link? Can they just open the link all members get? I use recurring meeting. Is that a problem too?
