You can claim the ‘host’ role in any meeting by entering the Host ID which can be found in 1Password for each account (and also by logging into an account, viewing the Profile tab and scrolling to the bottom).
If you enter a HM General Zoom account meeting and go to Participants
, a panel to the right of the meeting screen will appear. Then you need to click on the Claim Host
button at the bottom of the panel that appears.
When the Claim Host
popup box appears, enter in the Host ID from the Google Calendar description, and you will be given host rights for the meeting.
How to find your own Claim Host ID
If you have set recurring or non-recurring meetings you can also share your Claim Host ID and give others the ability to take over hosting privileges if you are not around.
To find your personal Host ID:
- Go to your Zoom profile on their website.
- Find where it says
Host Key
- Press the
Show
button. The site will display your Host ID.
You are also able to change the Host ID to be any 6-10 numeric code so that it is easier for you to remember your personal Host ID easier.
