Selecting languages for interpreter services on Zoom

Hello,

 

I have to enable interpreter services from time to time for a class. I see that there are only NINE languages options to choose from. This week I needed to choose Arabic and Punjabi. Is there a way to add these languages to the drop down feature?

Hello @Bort 

I have a problem. I try to follow the link but I still can not add language because I can not see the plus sign (+) symbol to add more languages. How can I solve this problem?

Thank You.

Hi @NUT9 

Based on your screenshot, it looks like you're trying to add a custom language while you are scheduling the meeting. Instead, go to the Language Interpretation setting in the Settings page to add a custom language option.

Once you've added the custom language(s) there, you can see those as an option when scheduling or editing an existing meeting.

@BortThanks a lot. Now I can add the custom language.
