Breakout rooms - There are no assigned presenters to select from" error
I can see others are having this problem too but really what is the point of introducing the option of allowing the Organizer to assign other Presenters (in order to manage breakout rooms), if it only works intermittently?
When I try to assign my colleagues as Presenters I get "There are no assigned presenters to select from", 70% of the time. There's no rhyme or reason to it, I've been over any possible issues and even cleared my Teams cache, all to no avail.
Please does someone have a fix??
To add to this thread, we managed to get it working today by omitting to set the presenters/Breakout operators as 'co-organisers,' a step that we thought was necessary.
Usual process = Invite to meeting (optional as it's impossible for us to RSVP), add to Meeting Options as 'co presenter', make it so only org and co-orgs can present, create B/O rooms, configure B/O rooms with presenters. This now fails (no presenters to choose from) and the co orgs appear like this, see broken image icons:
We have found a workaround where if you don't add them as Co orgs, but set it so 'everyone' can present, they can be added as b/o room managers.
Can anyone else confirm how they set this up?
- Thanks Andy. I guess we may have to go back to setting them up as Co Orgs when this bug gets fixed. For now your workaround helped.
- Hey, as mentioned in the other thread a fix was supposed to roll out. But not sure about the status so have to get back on that. For the record I also experience this.
- I've just made my way to this thread as it's happening all of a sudden to our users - both to our admin, and I can replicate the issue. Is anything more known about this a year on pls?
Andy_Backswe struggled for a long time and then suddenly it started working fine for us a a few weeks or months ago. As long as I am the organiser and I have invited those I wish to make presenters, I can go in and assign them Presenter rights. I assumed they had fixed the issue but clearly not for all - good luck!
