Webex Webinars: Allow an Attendee to Speak

Unlike in Meetings, the Attendees in a Webinar cannot unmute themselves. To give an Attendee microphone privileges, follow this guide. 

Allow an Attendee to unmute their Microphone

  1. Within the Participant Panel, click on View all Attendees

  2. This will open a small window that lists all the Attendees. You may use the search box to find a certain Attendee, or you may scroll to find them. Click on the Attendee you wish to unmute.

  3. After finding the Attendee, click on the Microphone icon to send them a notification.

  4. Clicking this button will ask and allow the Attendee to unmute. They will still need to manually unmute themselves when ready.  

  5. When the Attendee is muted, either by a Host/Cohost or by themself, they will lose the right to unmute
