Calendly Alternative Host Support

Does anyone know how does Calendly work with Zoom Alternative Hosts?  We have a paid Zoom corporate subscription where all our users are in one place, and we have a paid Calendly Professional account.  When a user has a new Zoom meeting booked with them via Calendly, the user will then add in an Alternative Host via Zoom to the meeting, but the problem is the Alternative Host cannot start the Zoom meeting via the Zoom link sent through Calendly.  The Alternative Host can start the meeting via the email they received from Zoom that they have been assigned as an Alternative Host and use the email link to start the meeting, but is there a way where the Alternative Host can start the Calendly Zoom meeting directly from the Calendly meeting invite?

While unfortunately it does not allowing an alternate host to start a Zoom meeting from the invite you can accomplish this using APIs to ensure an invite is sent to alternate hosts with the correct link to let them join from an invite. There is also a Zoom app, Salepager, that lets alternate hosts start and join a meeting directly from the invite.
