Using a co-host in the meeting

The co-host feature allows you to share hosting privileges with another user in a meeting. This can be useful to allow another user to manage the administrative side of the meeting, such as muting participants, chatting with participants or starting/stopping the recording.

Co-hosts are assigned during a meeting and cannot start a meeting. To assign a co-host open the participants window by clicking “Manage Participants” button. Mouse over to the participant you want to assign as co-host. Click “More” and select “Make Co-Host”.
