The latest Nikon Z6/Z7 firmware update version 3.20 unlocked Blackmagic RAW support. Your camera still has to go to Nikon for RAW update. £199 / $199
If you have done the update already then you just need to update the firmware.
With the Z 7, RAW video output is possible only with full-HD videos recorded in the FX-based video format and 4K UHD videos recorded in the DX-based video format. With the Z 6, 4K UHD and full-HD RAW video output is possible with both FX- and DX-based movie formats.
