# defaultInitiatorRole

The default role to assign to the initiator of the group activity.

```
let defaultInitiatorRole: (any SpatialTemplateRole)?
```

## Discussion

Spatial templates use roles to determine which seats are available
to participants. If you specify a value for this property at
initialization time, the spatial template assigns this role to
the person who starts the group activity. For example, you might
assign a presenter role to the person who starts an activity to
deliver a presentation.
