1 Roles

Webex Meetings has the following roles.

Host

They can start / end a meeting and assign users to “Presenter. ”

They can also mute / unmute microphones of participants, but participants can cancel it themselves.

Cohosts

In addition to closing the event, they can set presenter privileges, control breakout sessions, and move participants to and from the lobby.

They can also set the participant's microphone mute, but they can also unmute it themselves.

Compared to the host, you can't control the recording and start of the event, but the rest is pretty much the same.

Presenter

They can share the contents, and use a poll to create and share questionnaires.

If the host has chosen the setting “Anyone Can Share,” the participant who shared the content automatically becomes the presenter.

When “Anyone can share” is on, any participant can share content in the meeting.

When “Anyone can share” is off, only presenter set up by the host / Cohosts will be able to share content and manage polling.

Participants

They can mute / unmute the microphone and send the camera image. They can chat with other participants and the host.
