== Closed Captioning ==

Closed captioning allows you or another meeting attendee, assigned by the host, to add closed captioning in a meeting. In a webinar, closed captioning can be typed by the host, co-host, or a panelist assigned by the host. You can type the closed captions directly via Zoom or you can integrate a third party service.

Closed Captioning can be enabled for your own meetings using below steps.
1. Login to Zoom web portal. Then click on Settings menu from the left pane. On the Meeting tab, navigate to the Closed Caption option under In-Meeting (Advanced) and turn on the status toggle.
