Is there an option to suspend a single participant?

Under security I only see one that suspends everybody. Do I need to update something? I am using Zoom Basic and am not sure where to check the version.

Up to now, I have only used zoom as a participant, not a host, so I am trying to figure out what to do if an obnoxious troll crashes our meeting.

Thanks

There's also the "Report" option on the submenu for each participant:

Check out this Zoom Support article... it has some other tips that might be helpful:

Hi @schaer 

Unfortunately, there is only that option to suspend all activity in the meeting, and its not an available option for a single participant. As @Ray_Harwood mentioned, you can report a disruptive member, which will remove them from the session and report them to Zoom's Trust and Safety team. If you don't want to report them, but just get rid of them as quickly as possible, removing them as a participant is great as well. This article has information about how to managed your participants: https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/115005759423

 

Hope that helps and let me know if you have any further questions. Otherwise, make sure to mark the solution as accepted if this information is what you needed.
