Creating a Translation Integration Configuration

Create a translation integration framework configuration so you can specify how to translate your content. The configuration includes the following information:

  • Which translation service provider to use
  • Whether human or machine translation is to be performed
  • Whether to translate other content that is associated with a page or asset, such as tags

After you create a framework configuration, you associate the cloud configuration with the pages that you want to translate according to the configuration. When the translation process is started, the translation workflow proceeds according to the associated framework configuration.

When different sections of your website have different translation requirements, create multiple framework configurations accordingly. For example, a multilingual website might include English, Spanish, and Japanese language copies. The site owner uses two different translation service providers for Spanish and Japanese translations. Therefore, two configurations of the framework are configured. Each configuration uses a different translation service provider.

After you configure a translation integration framework, you can associate it with the pages that use it.

TIP
For an overview of the content translation features in AEM, see Translating Content for Multilingual Sites.

A single configuration of the framework controls how page content and assets are translated. To create a translation configuration:

  1. In the global navigation menu, select Tools > Cloud Services & Translation Cloud Services.

  2. Navigate to where you want to create the configuration in your content structure. This is often based on a particular site or can be global.

  3. Provide the following information in the fields and then select Create.:

    1. Select Configuration Type in the drop-down.
    2. Enter a Title for your configuration. The Title identifies the configuration in the Cloud Services console and in page property drop-down lists.
    3. Optionally, type a Name to use for the repository node that stores the configuration.
  4. In the Edit Configuration window, configure the properties on the Sites and Assets tabs, and then select Save & Close.
