XTM Connect – Drupal

Introduction

XTM Connect – Drupal is a plugin that integrates Drupal, the website creation tool, with XTM Cloud.

For more details, see the Integration overview.

Note

In the Drupal system, a plugin is referred to as a module. Despite this, in the documentation for XTM Connect – Drupal, the term plugin is used.

XTM Connect – Drupal includes these features:

  • Easy project creation: simply create your translation projects directly in the Drupal Translation Management Tool plugin (referred to in Drupal and in this document as TMGMT).

  • Bulk content selection: select the content that needs to be sent for translation quickly and easily.

  • Automated localization: use cron jobs to eliminate manual file transfer by sending content for translation from Drupal to XTM Cloud automatically, without having to leave the TMGMT interface. To automate this process, content is sent in continuous jobs.

  • Easy progress tracking: real-time or scheduled updates from XTM Cloud can be shown directly in Drupal, if callbacks are configured, so you can see that your localization projects are on track without switching between systems.

  • Quicker publishing of translated content: content can be sent back to Drupal automatically as soon as a project is finalized in XTM Cloud, ensuring localized pages are published straight away.

Note

Use of XTM Connect – Drupal is provided under a separate software license from the standard XTM Cloud license or subscription agreement. Contact XTM Sales to learn more about XTM Connect – Drupal and request a quote. Upon purchase, XTM International will enable the required API connection for you.
