Thanks for posting on the Zoom Devforum! I am still learning, but I will try my best to help answer your question. 🙂

Checkout these related threads that may have the answer you are looking for:

> Description- When creating a meeting via the API, there is a string field called ‘settings.alternative\_hosts’. What is the use of this field as host can make any user a host who will be present in meeting.?

> [@List of Meeting Hosts Including Alternate Hosts](https://devforum.zoom.us/t/-/13000):
>
> Is it possible to use the API to pull a list of alternate hosts that participated in a meeting? Or will they be listed only as participants?

If these threads did not help, please let us know by replying back here and someone from the Developer Relations team will get back to you shortly.

Thanks,
