Zoom Scheduling Privileges allows you to schedule Zoom meetings for someone else (like your manager) so that s/he is the host and has complete control of the Zoom Meeting room.  Once you have scheduling privileges, you can create meetings for that person in Google Calendar, Outlook, Zoom app, and more.

Step 1: Completed by the person you need to schedule for (i.e., your supervisor)

First, the person you need to schedule for must assign scheduling privilege to you in Zoom's settings by following these instructions.
