Brief Description:
Users are reporting an issue with Zoom removing all alternative hosts when they edit a meeting. The issue occurs only for recurring meetings.
User Impact:
Users are reporting an issue with Zoom removing all alternative hosts when they edit a meeting. The source of this issue is related to the current lack of a way to add an Alternative Host to a single occurrence of a recurring meeting and the issue occurs only for recurring meetings. If any of the recurring meetings instance has a specified date, users will need to choose Edit All to add an Alternative Host, and the Edit All option is not available when recurring meetings are created with no-fixed-time. This results in the blank Alternative Host field when editing the meeting.
