Host: The user that scheduled the meeting. The host has full permission to manage the meeting. There can only be one host of a meeting. Only the host can manage breakout rooms.
Co-Host: Shares most of the controls the host has regarding managing attendees. Must be assigned after the meeting starts (cannot be done in advance). Co-hosts cannot start a meeting.
Alternative Host: Same controls as co-host, but can start the meeting. Hosts can assign an alternative host when they schedule the meeting. The host must be a licensed user within the organization.
Features with an asterisk (*) can be enabled or disabled by the host during the meeting.
