Please be sure to add the user as a Contact before trying to add them as a delegate.

Follow these steps to add a delegate:

  1. Sign in to your Amazon Chime account on Windows or Mac
  2. Add the user you want to be your delegate as a contact by choosing Contacts from the launch pad.

  3. Search your Contacts for the user and if you find them, select their name and choose Add to contacts in the right pane if it is available.
  4. If they are not already yet registered, choose Create a new contact and click Done. We recommend sending them instructions for signing up for an Amazon Chime account here: https://aws.amazon.com/chime/getting-started.
