- Indico users with GSI/FAIR email addresses can be meeting hosts via the GSI/FAIR Zoom subscription.
- The Zoom meetings may be restricted according to the licence type of the host (40 min. limit etc.).
- Zoom meetings can be created on behalf of other Indico users as meeting host.
- Event managers can make themselves a co-host, if they hold the necessary licence via the GSI/FAIR Zoom subscription.
