I have the page of advice telling me how to convert a meeting to a webinar however when I view the meeting the only buttons to the right are start, edit and delete. There is no option to convert on any of my meetings. Does this mean that I cant convert? Thanks.

    Hi, @EllieB 

    The article you are looking for is below.

    Converting meetings and webinars – Zoom Support

    From the meeting list, click on the name of the meeting to go to the details view screen, where you will see "Want a webinar instead of a meeting? Convert this Meeting to a Webinar".

    We have the same problem. When following the above steps, there is no text that says 'want a webinar instead of a meeting?'

    We have added a webinar license and are able to create a webinar but need to change a current meeting into a webinar, however don't seem to have the option. Any assistance is appreciated.

    Hello @khickman,

    Welcome to the Zoom Community! We're glad to have you here.

    Kindly doublecheck if the webinar license has been assigned to the host who will be converting the meeting to a webinar. Also, the scheduled meeting must use an automatically generated meeting ID; it cannot be scheduled with PMI.

    Let us know if you need further assistance.
