How to Assign the Co-Organizer Role to Microsoft Teams Meetings
Rae_Jay Hello, these are the details of the co-org role.
Co-organizers can do the following:
- Access and change meeting options
- Bypass the lobby
- Admit people from the lobby during a meeting
- Lock the meeting
- Present content
- Change another participant’s meeting role
- End the meeting for all
- Create & manage breakout rooms
To make co-organizers breakout room managers, you must first assign them the breakout room manager role.
Co-organizers cannot do the following:
Create & manage breakout rooms(updated, see above)- View & download attendance reports
- Manage the meeting recording
- Edit the meeting invitation
- Remove or change the Organizer role
TonyRedmond Agreeing with all of the previous replies. Our key issue is the inability to change the owner or organizer of meetings. We like to setup indefinite Teams meetings for long term projects so everyone knows the meeting link and can jump on any time. The problem is when the originator leaves it forces us to recreate all of these meetings and send out new invitations and meeting links. This also means the previous chatter history and attachments is lost. We desperately need the ability to maintain continuity by keeping the meetings as-is and changing the owner to a new person. Or, if a Co-organizer had 100% of the functionality of the owner/organizer that would probably work.
