Hi there! I´m trying to add an alternative host to my meeting and I get an error message (see attached). Does anyone know how to fix this? Thx!

Alternative hosts can only be assigned during scheduling or before the scheduled start time. If a host is attending a meeting but needs assistance with managing the meeting, they can assign a co-host during the meeting instead of an alternative host. Learn more about roles in a meeting.

Hello,

 

Prerequisites for designating an alternative host


Zoom desktop client for Windows, macOS, or Linux: Global minimum version or higher
Zoom mobile app for Android or iOS: Global minimum version or higher
Both users need to be Licensed and on the same account
For webinar, the user who schedules the meeting needs both a license and the webinar add-on; the alternative host only needs to be Licensed
Alternative hosts must be signed in to Zoom with the correct account in order to be granted the host or co-host permissions
