    Hi @username!

     

    If you’re referring to starting or joining a Zoom meeting without the original host (or “originator”), that’s possible depending on how the meeting was set up. In most cases, this can be done if you’ve been added as an alternative host, have scheduling privilege, or if Join Before Host is enabled.

     

    You can learn more about these options here: Zoom Support: Managing scheduling privileges and alternative hosts
