    Hi Ollie I believe that some of your use cases can be covered by appointing "breakout room managers". Breakout room manager functionality is currently available. In terms of permissions, breakout room managers can do the following things:

    • Add new rooms and delete existing rooms
    • Assign and reassign meeting participants to rooms
