Send messages to participants in the Waiting Room

[SusanK1]

Hi

I host a Zoom meeting on a MacBook Pro 10.5.2.

I am seeking clarification on the following points (taken from Zoom article “Send messages to participants in the Waiting Room”).



“1. As the meeting host, click Chat*


2 Click the dropdown next to To:
 (Name)


3. Click Everyone (in Waiting Room).**


4. Enter and send your chat message to the Waiting Room.


Once the message has been sent, the participants in the Waiting Room will see the message on the Waiting Room screen:”


Three simple Questions 😄 …..

*Is it ONLY THE MEETING HOST(rather than the co-host) that can send a message to participants in the Waiting? Y/N


**Does the Host message disappear once those particular participants in the Waiting Room are admitted to the meeting? Y/N

And
Can the participants in the Waiting Room respond to the Host message from the Waiting Room? Y/N


Thank you very much in advance.

We're discussing this in a Zoom Meeting right now,  and I have found that participants in the Waiting Room cannot reply to messages, so the answer to the question "Can the participants in the Waiting Room respond to the Host message from the Waiting Room? Y/N" is N.
