Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: ?Community Zoom?

[Rebecca J. Hogue (rjhogue]

Zoom lets you set a host code. With the code, anyone who has logged in can 
“claim host”. That allows someone who isn’t logged into the shared account, to 
take host of a  meeting.

There is a way to integrate Google Calendar with Zoom, so that when you book a 
meeting, it books a zoom meeting. We found it easiest to give a few people the 
passwords – in our case it was initial circle leaders, but later became circle 
admins. If you need a meeting, you reach out to your circle admin and they set 
it up for you and give you the zoom links. Then when in the meeting host can be 
claimed if needed.

When sharing an account you need to be careful not to have overlapping meeting.

Hope that helps,
Cheers,
Becky (Treehouse Village, Nova Scotia).

Hi, Co-Co-Housers,

I hope all is well.

Zoom has been wonderfully helpful for us these past few years when it has not 
been advisable to meet in person.
I am grateful that we have it.

Still, we find that for us it has limitations we do not know how to overcome——
If you have a way to share a Community Zoom Account please let us know.
We would like to be able to have various community members schedule and host a 
Zoom meeting.
We have not figured out how to do this.

We know that the holder of the account can initiate a meeting, turn over the 
meeting to a co-host and then leave the meeting.
We do not know how to just have person B—— the co-host— simply open the meeting 
and host from their computer.

 May the coming year be filled with your hearts desire----- with moments of 
joy, delight, and peace. And may goodness ripple out around the world.
Ruth
