Question

Cohost

I know we are able to add a cohost. My question is, am I able to have more than one cohost and them have the same accesses that I have? Or am I only able to give one cohost access at a time? I have a Licensed account.

    Hi, @mhenson,

     

    Once you're in the meeting, you can give any Participant the Co-Host designation.  Be careful, because they do have almost as much permission as you do (there are a very few things a Co-Host can't do; see the following Zoom Support article).

    Ok, but am I able to have more than one co-host at a time? We are piloting a program that would require at least three other cohosts besides the main host. Is there something I need to do or a switch in the settings I need to toggle in order to allow for more than one cohost all at the same time?

    You can designate as many cohosts as you like – there’s no limit. You can designate everyone as cohost!  Not usually recommended, but you can. 😎

    To enable or disable the co-host feature for all users in the account:

    1. Sign in to the Zoom web portal as an administrator with the privilege to edit account settings.
    2. In the navigation menu, click Account Management then Account Settings.
    3. Click the Meeting tab.
    4. Under In Meeting (Basic), click the Co-host toggle to enable or disable it.
    5. If a verification dialog appears, click Enable or Disable to verify the change.
    6. (Optional) To prevent all users in your account from changing this setting, click the lock icon, and then click Lock to confirm the setting.
