Available Settings Before Sending the Invite Click on Change Settings next to the Cisco Webex Icon you selected when you started to schedule a Webex Meeting Designating an Alternate Host A meeting cannot begin unless a host starts the meeting.

If for some reason the host cannot start the meeting, then the meeting cannot take place for anyone unless they have the Host Key.

This can be done where it says Alternate Host under Change Settings.

Only a UW Madison Webex Account holder can be selected as an alternate host.

They will receive an email saying they have been selected as an alternate host with the host information.

If you do not see the name of the person youd like to designate as an Alternate Host, then you have not entered their email in the TO field when starting the message.

Close out of Change Settings and go back to the To: field and enter their email.

To do this, select Change Settings, then select the drop down for Audio Connection.

By selecting Use VoIP Only, the phone number will not be displayed and no phone dial in will be enabled for that Webex Meeting.
