Zoom: Allow Participants to Share Screen

Instructions

Only the host, co-host, or alternative host can manage participant screen sharing.

Enable/disable participant screen sharing: 

  1. Select the Host tools icon on the meeting toolbar. 
  2. Choose Share Screen. 
    • If there is a check mark next to Share Screen, participants will have the option to share their screen. 
  3. To disable participant screen sharing, select the Host tools icon again and choose Share Screen.

Screen Share Options:

  1. Select the chevron next to the green Share Screen icon. 
  2. Choose your preferred sharing option or select Advanced Sharing Options
    • ​​​​​​​You will be able to select to have only one participant share at a time or have multiple participants share. 
    • You can enable participant screen sharing after selecting Advanced Sharing Options.

NOTE: The last Share Screen setting may carry over to your next meeting. For example, if participants had access to the Share Screen in the previous meeting, participants in the next meeting may have access as well (until another option is chosen).  Change the Share Screen settings as needed during the meeting by selecting the chevron next to the Share Screen icon on the meeting toolbar.
