Random user becomes host if the real host is forced to leave (ex: network disconnection/crash)

API and Webhooks

Hey @bragma,

Here is the solution we have implemented thus far:

If the host gets disconnected, another user on your Zoom account who is in the meeting will get assigned the host. You can also specify a co host to a trusted participant in the case where there is no other user present on your account.

We are working on a feature where if there are no co hosts or account users present in the meeting, and the host gets disconnected, then everyone in the meeting will be moved into a waiting room until the host re joins. (ZOOM-151680)

Since this is a product enhancement, stay updated here:

Thanks,
Tommy
