How can I transfer ownership/host of a meeting from one user to another?

[DH3]

I need to transfer ownership of meetings from a user who has been terminated to another user in our group.

Changing Host of a Reoccurring Meeting as an admin 

Please see my response below:

This one is tricky, but doable.

1.) First, you need to make sure the original host's account is re-activated (even temporarily for this maneuver).

2.) From the admin portal - > Users, navigate to the original host's account and give yourself scheduling priveliges (https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/201362803-Using-scheduling-privilege)

3.) If moving to a new host's account, do the same for them and grant yourself scheduling priveliges to the destination host's account

4.) Navigate to your own meetings (personal) and select the calendar of the current (old) meeting owner. Hover over the meeting title for the recurring meeting and select 'edit'. In this case 'edit all instances'.

5.) You will now see a 'schedule for' dropdown. Select the new/destination host and save changes.

6.) The meeting owner has now been changed, but meeting ID and passcode should stay persistent.

7.) Revoke scheduling priveliges (if desired) and deactivate old user (if desired).

This is a complex maneuver, but it definitely works! Let me know if you run into any snags along the way.

If you need to transfer ALL data (inclusive of meetings) and plan to DELETE the original owner's account entirely, you can use the option outlined below:

This is a simpler, but more destructive option.
