Schedule, manage, and start a meeting for another host in Microsoft Outlook
If you have a host account, you can schedule meetings for another host using the Webex Scheduler or Webex Productivity Tools in Microsoft Outlook. If you manage the calendar of someone else or the actual host can't schedule a meeting, you can access their Outlook calendar if they grant you permission.
These instructions detail how to schedule meetings for another host if you're using Outlook with a Microsoft 365 account. If you're using Outlook in Microsoft Exchange, you can also Schedule Webex meetings for another host in Microsoft Exchange with the Webex Scheduler.

-
Make sure that you and the actual host are both using the same version of Webex Scheduler or Webex Productivity Tools.
