Meeting roles and permissions

Your capabilities for screen sharing and carrying out other activities in a meeting room are determined by your role. There are three roles for meeting room attendees: host, presenter, and participant.

Host
The host is the owner of the meeting room. The host can resize and rearrange the pods in a meeting room, invite attendees, grant and deny access to the room, and share and annotate their screen. The host can broadcast live video and control use of the Camera pod, change settings in the Chat pod, and add content to the Note pod. The host can also assign a participant the role of presenter and clear status indicators in the Attendee List pod.

Presenter
Presenters can share and annotate their screens, take notes, broadcast live video, and use text chat. To facilitate screen sharing or other types of collaboration, presenters can also maximize and restore the viewing area of each pod. However, presenters cannot move or resize the pods.

Participant
Participants can view the shared screen of a host or presenter, broadcast live video, use text chat, and view the meeting notes. A participant cannot share their screen or contribute meeting notes unless the host makes them a presenter.
