Have a host or alternative host role of the Zoom meeting or webinar you are captioning
Shortly before the event start time, the meeting or webinar host should:
Start the meeting.
Wait for the captioner to join.
In the meeting controls bar, click the arrow next to Show Captions or More >Captions.
Click Set Up Manual Captioner.
Set "Enable manual captioner" to On.
According to the instructions the captioning service provided in advance, EITHER:
Click Assign a participant to type and choose the captioner from the Participant list (which enables them to type directly into Zoom) OR
Click Copy the API token and share it with the captioning service using your pre-arranged method. Click the Subtitles available notice that indicates the caption feed has started and choose Show subtitles to display captions to participants.
Warning: Do not end the meeting after copying and sharing the API token! A new, unique token is created each time you start a meeting, even if you use the same meeting link.
