- If you are unsure whether you are the host of an upcoming meeting, you can enter the room (at any time) and look for the "Host controls" options as seen above. If it is missing, you are not considered the host/organizer.
- If you have access to calendars from various accounts, make sure you are creating the calendar event (and corresponding Google Meet) with the account that you are going to be joining the meeting with. For example, if you have an individual calendar and a shared office calendar that events are managed on, be sure to create the event on the individual calendar, send out the invites (including, as needed, the shared calendar account) and be logged into that same account when you join the meeting at its scheduled time.
- If a calendar event (and corresponding Google Meet) is owned by an account that will not be logging into the meeting to host, the event can be easily transferred to a different owner. Google's guidance on this is found here: Transfer Google calendars or events Transferring the event ownership will also transfer the meeting host role.
- If you are the event organizer, but are not seeing the host controls, you can try removing, saving, then readding a new Google Meet room, though this will mean that you need to send out updated invitations to all participants.
- If you had problems with a past meeting and are still not sure where the problem is, feel free to reach out to IT Services for further assistance.
