Does anyone know if the breakout rooms in Zoom allow the following:

1-set up a maximum of 2 attendees per room and randomly assign attendees to rooms

3-have consecutive timed sessions within one Zoom meeting, with random assignment of attendees for each session

Thank you!

Hello @Pfonseca.

1 - You could accomplish this by creating the number of Break Out Rooms based on your number of attendees, i.e. 10 people = 5 Break Out Rooms

2 - Attendees can be randomly assigned to Break Out Rooms

3 - There is not currently a way to schedule multiple sessions within one Zoom meeting but you can start, stop and restart Break Out Rooms as needed in a single Zoom meeting.

More information about Break Out Rooms can be found here: https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/206476313

We hope this information is helpful!

Thank you for choosing Zoom.
