Zoom: Set Screen Sharing to All Participants for Classroom Meetings

Change the Zoom account setting "Who can share?" from Host only to All Participants so content can be shared from a classroom or conference room without extra setup steps.

Overview

This guide describes how to change the Zoom account setting "Who can share?" from "Host only" to "All Participants". This change allows content to be shared from a classroom or conference room in a Zoom meeting. Leaving the setting at "Host only" can add steps and extra time during room setup.

Prerequisites

• A Cornell NetID and password.
• A web browser.

Steps

1. Open a web browser and go to the Cornell Zoom sign-in page:

   cornell.zoom.us
   

2. Sign in with the Cornell NetID and password.

   

   

3. Select the Settings tab on the left side of the page.

   

4. Select the Meeting tab, then select In Meeting (Basic).

   

5. Scroll down to the Screen Sharing section.

6. Under Who can share?, change the selection from Host only to All Participants.

7. Select Save when the button appears.

Verification

1. Reload the Settings page, then select Meeting and In Meeting (Basic).
2. In the Screen Sharing section, confirm that Who can share? shows All Participants.
3. Optionally, start a test meeting from the classroom or conference room and confirm that content can be shared without first being made host or being granted sharing rights.
