I try to change host on button click.

This is function

```auto
 const changeHost = async () => {
        const currentUser = await zmClient.getCurrentUserInfo();
        await zmClient.makeHost(currentUser.userId);
}

```

Get error

1. reason: “operation is not applicable to self”
2. type: “INVALID\_OPERATION”

Can host be changed on this way?
