Why can’t I add an alternative host on Zoom?

Can you add an alternative host to an already scheduled Zoom meeting?

An alternative host is added when creating your meeting in your Zoom account on the web or by editing an existing meeting via the My Meetings tab on the web. Go to the Advanced Options at the bottom of the meeting setup page and enter the email address of the person you wish to be an alternative host.

Can a zoom meeting run without the host?

Yes, a zoom meeting can run without the host if the “allow participants to join before host” feature permits attendees to join the meeting before the host joins or when the host cannot attend the meeting. 

In other words, if you select this option, then the participants can join the meeting before the host joins or without the host.

Can I transfer host on Zoom before the meeting?

Yes, you can transfer hosts on Zoom before a meeting. To do so, open the meeting settings and select “Transfer Host” from the menu. Simply log into the Zoom website and navigate to the meetings > upcoming meetings tab and edit the meeting in question. (dulcesdiabeticos.com)
