Re: Update Event Panelist to coHost

Gasper A · ‎04-06-2022

I'm trying to add a panelist as a cohost with the webex xml api. I know its an option in the web when scheduling an event, but I just found this in the api documentation:

There is no way to change the registration status of an existing registrant. It would need to be deleted and added again with the correct registration state, or in this case the alternate host+panelist. Please see example below using createMeetingAttendee API.
