Can the Claim Host feature be used if the host is not present and the meeting is set up to have a Waiting Room? If so, how would a member enter the Host Key?

Hi @LibbyTW-2003 , thank you for your contribution! Apologies for the delay in response. As of now, the participants placed in the Waiting Room would not be able to claim the hosting privileges when they are in the Waiting Room since they are not yet inside the meeting itself. https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/115000332726-Using-Waiting-Room
Please feel free to submit this feedback to our product teams via zoom.us/feed
I hope this was helpful!

Has this issue been resolved yet? How can one Claim Host with the key when the Waiting Room is enabled?
