Multiple Roles

I've been researching the many roles and capabilities that each role has to offer in Zoom. Are you able to assign multiple roles to a single individual?

IE: Could you assign someone as both a panelist and a speaker? I'd like them to be able to share their screen and have controls to turn their camera on and off as a panelist, but also be able to start their session and respond to Q&A as a speaker.

Hello @BreannW - Thanks for reaching out to Zoom Community. Unfortunately, you cannot assign multiple roles to a single user and cannot make a participant "panelist and host" at the same time. Let us know if you have any other question(s).

Hello. Having trouble with the single user/multiple roles issue. Why can't a single user be set up as a speaker and a booth representative or booth point of contact?
