HELP! Host to create a meeting but not attend

[Tash2022]

Hi all,

I was previously able to create a meeting in Zoom where anyone could join without the host attending or letting them in. Now when I create a meeting I need to login so other participants can join. Is there an easy way to set a meeting where I don't have to join as the host? 

Thanks,

Tash.

Hi @Tash2022

Please can you check the following setting to see if it's enabled?

• Sign in to the Zoom web portal.
• In the navigation menu, click Settings.
• In the Meeting tab, verify that Join before host is enabled.
