The chat feature allows webinar attendees, the host, co-hosts, and panelists to communicate for the duration of the webinar. As the host, you can choose who panelists and attendees can chat with. Account owners and admins can disable webinar chat entirely. Each user can choose in settings to view each participant's profile photo in chat, or their initials if they have no profile photo.
Note: If you see a prompt that your message has triggered a Chat Etiquette policy, you are either warned or blocked from sending the message based on what your account admin has configured. The Chat Etiquette Tool does not send additional message information, like data, metadata, and event information, to the account admin, to Zoom, or to any 3rd party services, whether the message triggers Chat Etiquette policies or not.
