How can we use the&nbsp;setHost &&nbsp;setCoHost methods in&nbsp;InMeetingUserInfo class?

Can they only be called by the host?

If so, is there a way to make an ordinary user a host/co-host in runtime?

Hi Amir,

only host can call this two method. you have to be a host if you want to either pass the host privilege or make someone else co-host.

Best
