When supporting meetings with breakout rooms, my team is unable to help manage breakout rooms unless the host gives their host role to the supporting tech person. This is a workaround but not an ideal solution. Most of our courses use breakout rooms and it is difficult sometimes for our department to support without disrupting class. It’s not realistic to have have our professors/hosts manage breakout rooms in their larger classes on their own.

I’d like to have this feature. Same problem here. It’s so hard to manage breakout rooms all by myself.

+1 to this, allowing all Host only functions to a cohost would be very helpful. Breakout Rooms/Streaming/etc.
