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
The very idea of these available options is to set them up before the meeting, so of course they can be predefined.
Those would be the 'fixed' options of a webinar (date, location, invitation url, form). Regretfully those fixed options change and only the owner can change them. Which is problematic if that person isn't available (parttime or sickness).
Then you have the simple list of attendees, which also only the owner can see before the webinar. There are just some simple (at least from a user perspective) features that seem to be lacking.
