Allowing somebody else to launch/host a meeting I create but don't attend

Hello all.   I am a licenced Zoom user.  From time to time I want to setup a meeting and send link to colleagues but NOT attend myself.  It is insisting that the meeting is launched from my specific PC.   How can I have it that another colleague can launch the meeting from their device and not have to launch from my PC.  Thks Fergus Dublin

    @Fergus-Dublin This can be achieved by assigning a designated host (co-host) to your scheduled meetings. Please see here for details and instructions on how to assign an alternative host to your meeting.

    @Fergus-Dublin Yes, that's right. A co-host must be Zoom licensed user.

    Can that alter ego record?
