Zoom Scheduling Privileges

Zoom offers the ability to have another person schedule your Zoom meetings for you. For example this allows a Dean to grant their department assistant the ability to set up Zoom meetings in the Dean's name. It will appears as though the Dean created the meeting.

Note: The person being granted the scheduling rights is required to have logged into the Zoom web portal one time, so Zoom will know who the person is.

Note: If that person's name does not appear, it's because they have never signed into the Zoom web portal. Ask them to log in then follow these steps again.
