Zoom Alternative Host

To schedule a meeting with an alternate host on Windows or Mac, simply follow the instructions below:

(Note: A Licensed account is required in order for the host to designate another Licensed user on the same account to be the alternative host.)

• Sign in to the Zoom desktop client. 

• Click on the Schedule icon.
  

  
  

  (This will open the scheduler window.)

• Click Advanced Options.

• In the Alternative Host field, enter the alternative name to search through users. You can also enter the alternative host's email address if their name doesn't come up.

• Click Schedule to finish, and open up the calendar you have selected.

• The alternative host will now receive an email letting them know that they have been added as an alternative host, as long as they have not disabled this email notification in the Zoom web portal.
