Translations Add-on
What is the Translations Add-on?
The Translations Add-on enables the automatic sending and receiving of translations between Bloomreach Experience Manager and API based translation platforms.
- Editors request translations in one or more languages for a given document. The document is sent to the external system.
- When the translation is finalized in the external system, the translated document is sent (push) back to or pulled back into the Hippo repository, for the editor to review and publish.
- Out-of-the-box integrations with LiveWords (livewords.com) and Globallink (translations.com).
Supported integrations
The Translations Add-on currently supports integrations with:
- Globallink (translations.com), see the GlobalLink connector documentation.
- LiveWords: (livewords.com), see the LiveWords connector documentation.
