Description

Synchronization based on buckets

XTM Connect – Jira and Jira

Once XTM Connect – Jira is configured to connect to Jira, it synchronizes with Jira and looks for Jira translation issues matching specific, selected Jira filters.

New files and updates

Jira to XTM Connect – Jira

On the basis of those Jira filters, XTM Connect – Jira recognizes source language files that have been added to Jira issues for translation since synchronization last took place. XTM Connect – Jira then creates a copy of the content of these files, for use as translation tasks.

Project creation

XTM Connect – Jira to XTM Cloud or XTM Suite

The Jira translation issues, including Jira issue custom field settings, are then used to create a translation project in XTM Cloud or XTM Suite, using a template that has previously been defined in XTM Cloud.

Localization

XTM Cloud or XTM Suite

The created translation project contains the source language content files. The linguists now translate them in the usual way, in XTM Workbench.

Delivery, stage 1

XTM Cloud or XTM Suite to XTM Connect – Jira

When the linguists have finished translating the target files, and the translation process has finished in XTM Cloud, XTM Cloud sends the translated target files back to XTM Connect – Jira.

Delivery, stage 2 (final)

XTM Connect – Jira to Jira

XTM Connect – Jira uploads the translated target files to the Jira translation issue from which they were taken.
