Exploring Localization Workspace
Localization Workspace is a targeted translation management experience for content owners and translation requesters. With Localization Workspace you can manage and deliver multilingual content at scale.
Localization Workspace overview
Localization Workspace contains all the components and data a Localization manager needs to understand and manage which content types and activities are required to complete translations. It streamlines and automates task creation and translation workflows.
In the initial release, Localization Workspace supports translation requests when the sources are English and the targets are non-English languages. Translation requests for non-English texts (into any language including English) are not currently supported.
After configuration, translation requests follow a translation workflow through a Translation Management System (TMS) or a machine translation (MT) service. Localization Workspace leverages the project bundling capabilities of Localization Framework.
Localization Workspace is available for on-premise (self-hosted) customers. It has not been certified for regulated markets.
