This article covers a Bloomreach Experience Manager version 12. There's an updated version available that covers our most recent release.

The GlobalLink Connector

Connector repository configuration

To set up the GlobalLink connector, set this property in the repository:

/hippo:configuration/hippo:modules/translation-services-daemon/hippo:moduleconfig/ translationsaddon:connector/className=
          com.bloomreach.cms.translations.connector.globallink.GlobalLinkTranslationConnector

Configuration settings are to be taken from your  GlobalLink / Translations.com account. Apply for one if you don't have one yet.

All configuration at the translationsaddon:connector node:

String property Default value Description
globallink.externalServiceUrl    
globallink.username    
globallink.password    
globallink.userAgent    
globallink.project    
globallink.submissionPrefix    
globallink.fileFormat Hippo_XML  
globallink.maxWaitDays 5  

Turn on translation results processing scheduler job

As also mentioned at the Configuration page, be sure have translation results pulled into the repository, by enabling the trigger at

/hippo:configuration/hippo:modules/scheduler/hippo:moduleconfig/translationsaddon/TranslationResultsProcessor/hipposched:triggers/every-minute

Set the property hipposched:enabled to true (checked) and save the changes.

You can also change the value of hipposched:cronExpression to adjust the time interval this job runs to check translation results on remote server.
