Allow Someone to Schedule Meetings on Your Behalf Overview

To give someone permission to manage your meetings, give them scheduling permissions on your Webex site, and share your calendar with them in Microsoft Outlook.

The delegate must have a host account and have Webex Productivity Tools installed on their computer.

Assign a Delegate on the Webex Site

1

Sign in to your Webex site.

2

In Modern View, select Preferences > Scheduling > Scheduling Permissions.


 

You can also assign a delegate in Classic View, select My Webex > Preferences > Scheduling Options > Scheduling Permissions.

3

In the Scheduling permission box, enter the email address of one or more hosts you want to allow to schedule meetings on your behalf.

You can select a maximum of 20 hosts.
