Select an Event Host for a Webcast Event
Every Webcast must have a designated Event Host to start and run the event no matter if it is private or public. Only the Event Host may start and control the event from the Event Calendar and there may be up to three event hosts assigned per event. An Event Host is selected during event creation and the event creator is the default host selected.
 
Additional Information: Event Moderator tasks and permissions are different from those of an Event Host. See: "Add an Event Moderator to a Webcast Event"
*To select one or more Event Hosts:
1. Navigate to User > Events > Add Event.
2. Schedule the event as you normally would. See: "Schedule a Webcast Event"
3. Select one or more hosts from the Select an Event Host control. Only accounts with the Event Admin, Event Host, or Account Admin roles will appear here.
4. All event hosts assigned will be able to control the Webcast slides if a moderator has not been assigned.
5. If the event host that creates the event is unable to reach the Webcast, additional hosts or admins assigned may control the Webcast.
6. If no event host or admin is able to reach the Webcast, it will automatically end on its own after 60 minutes of its scheduled end.
 
Tip: Event Hosts may only edit and control the events they specifically create. Event and Account Admins, however, may edit and control any event created in the system.
