Custom Translation Variables

The Translation Keys feature aims to bridge the language gap and enhance user experience in multinational workspaces. With easy customization and adaptability, it's a step towards creating a unified and inclusive workspace.

Use a Custom Translation Variable

You can use Custom Translation Variables anywhere you can add text, for example in Forms, Idea Collection details or View and Phase names. To use a Custom Translation Variable just copy and paste the key, e.g. {{ translate:custom.healthcare_campaign }} into any place where you want to use it. Once saved, the Custom Translation Variable will be displayed to users in the language they have set in their profile.

Add a Custom Translation Variable

1. Go to Settings > Workspace > Custom Translation Variables
2. Click on “Add”.
3. Prefix your key name with “custom.” (This is uneditable).
4. Ensure your key name is unique and adheres to the format: lowercase US-ASCII letters and underscores.
5. Fill out the English language field (mandatory) and other languages as needed.
6. Click "Save".

Editing a Custom Translation Key

1. Go to Settings > Workspace > Custom Translation Variables
2. Click on the desired translation key.
3. In the editing dialog, the translation key path appears uneditable at the top.
4. Use the “copy” icon to copy the key to your clipboard.
5. Modify translations for each language available. Original translations appear as placeholder values.
6. Changes are saved automatically. Click "Done" to close.

Delete a Custom Translation Key

The process mirrors editing a system key, but:

1. Go to Settings > Workspace > Custom Translation Variables
2. Click on the desired translation key.
3. A delete button is available. A warning dialog will pop up upon clicking it.

In case a custom translation key is deleted the translation will appear empty wherever it was used. If re-added, the translation will be displayed as usual.
