Meeting Moderators
As a meeting moderator, you can create polls for participants to vote on.
After the meeting, the moderator is automatically emailed a report of the poll results. The report includes the names and answers of the participants.
Anyone who schedules or starts a meeting will be the meeting host. If you transfer or schedule a meeting on someone else’s calendar, the other person could become the meeting host. By default, there is only one meeting host per meeting, but you can add up to 25 co-hosts once the meeting has started.
