Private Chat with just host or cohost
We would like to keep students from chatting with each other privately by being able to disable private chat and only allowing private chats to happen between attendees and the host.
| A typical use case scenario | Keeping students from private chatting |
| Benefit of such feature | No distractions |
| Product Line | RingCentral Meetings |
Thank you!!

Got it, Elia! Thanks for the clarification. We have updated the description on your idea to reflect the ask. We'll share with product.
We can see the drop down, the issue is we do not want students chatting with each other privately, ONLY the host. We wan them to see only the host as an option for chatting.

Elia, if you select the host, you can chat with them privately. There is a drop-down that shows all the attendees of the meeting including the host. You select them and conduct the conversation privately. If you're still having trouble, please reach out to us directly at Community.Support@RingCentral.com and we can troubleshoot the issue.
This allows private chatting, but does not preclude that is must be the host or cohost. I was requesting private chats with ONLY the host.

Elia, thanks for sharing this idea. However, this is a feature that does exist.
And it shouldn't make a difference if you are using RCV or RingCentral Meetings.
Here is a KB for RCV chats, but it should help no matter what video product your team uses.
