XTM Connect – Adobe Experience Manager

Changing the translation service provider for a project

Prerequisite: Translation Method setting

The correct translation method setting is a prerequisite for translation provision by a translation service provider. The default translation method for a newly created translation project is set in its properties, on the Advanced tab, described below. Ensure that the Translation Method (step 6. below) is set to Human Translation. Otherwise, you cannot change the translation service provider.

The global default translation service provider for all newly created translation projects is configured separately, in the Cloud Configuration settings in Adobe Experience Manager.

To change the selected translation method and translation service provider for a translation project:
  1. Log in to Adobe Experience Manager.

  2. In the global Navigation screen, select the Projects icon. You see the Projects screen.

  3. In the Projects screen, open the project for which you want to change the translation service provider. You see a summary screen showing the project's translation jobs and other details.

  4. In the Summary pane, on the left, select the three dots icon. The Translation Project Properties window is displayed.

  5. Select the Advanced tab.

  6. In the Advanced tab screen, change the Cloud Configuration setting to a path containing your preferred translation service provider’s settings. You can do this manually or choose a path from the available list under the tick box.

  7. Set the Translation Method to "Human Translation", if it is set to "Machine Translation". Otherwise, you cannot change the translation service provider, in the next step.

  8. Set the Translation Provider to "XTM Connector", if it is set to something else.

  9. Select Save & Close.

    Result: you have changed the translation method and translation service provider for the translation project.

Note

If required, you can select multiple translation service providers for a translation project. See Configuring multiple translation service providers.
