You can update the tables and properties of dependent applications such as Localization Framework without leaving the Localization Workspace interface. ## Overview of Configuration Hub {#lw-configuration-hub__section_yjy_fww_3hc} Localization Workspace extends other ServiceNow AI Platform applications related to localization. Configuring these dependent applications is a prerequisite to working with Localization Workspace. From version 2.0.2, Configuration Hub gives admins access to tables and properties in these applications from the Localization Workspace interface. Note: Any updates you make in Configuration Hub are saved to tables in the target application. To open Configuration Hub: With the localization_admin or the admin role, navigate to AllLocalization WorkspaceConfiguration Hub. Alternatively, you can select the hub's icon while in the workspace. The navigation pane within Configuration Hub lists applications and their components. Select the name of a component to open its table in a workspace pane. Note: In Configuration Hub, Dynamic Translation is displayed to the admin role only. The localization_admin role can't view Dynamic Translation. ## Localization Framework {#lw-configuration-hub__section_aly_c5w_3hc} The following components of Localization Framework are available to the localization_admin or admin role, from Localization Workspace. * [Artifact configurations](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/9hJIA0KBZS216ctSXaGBnA "You can configure the required artifacts and use the Localization Framework to fulfill the translation requests.") (the content types in Localization Workspace are built upon artifacts). * [Settings](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/GBRB6QeO5pYG9UcH78roUw "You can define translation and workflow preferences for one or more languages and for one or all the available artifacts with Localization Framework settings."). * [TMS Configurations](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/I2obvAhtW__oPncH5m5kvA "The Localization Framework supports integration with a translation management system to localize the content.") (required only if you use a TMS as your translation service provider). * Properties (visible to the admin role only). * Spoke Configurations (used for the [hub and spoke architecture](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/tmVS34WjiPOa552hsX8exg "Enable one central instance to fulfill translation requests submitted from other instances using the Localization Framework Hub and Spoke architecture. Install optional Localization Framework plugins to configure one of your instances as a hub and other instances as spokes.")). * Spoke settings (used for the [hub and spoke architecture](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/tmVS34WjiPOa552hsX8exg "Enable one central instance to fulfill translation requests submitted from other instances using the Localization Framework Hub and Spoke architecture. Install optional Localization Framework plugins to configure one of your instances as a hub and other instances as spokes.")). * [Language Code Mappings](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/mtmoHc3B3Uo4rPkPSvsrcw "Dynamic Translation enables you to add mapping between the ServiceNow language codes and the language codes used by your third-party translation service provider.") (may be required if you use a custom third-party translation service). {#lw-configuration-hub__ul_spc_x5w_3hc} ## Dynamic Translation {#lw-configuration-hub__section_ocf_g5w_3hc} Dynamic Translation is required to use machine translation on your instance. The following components of Dynamic Translation are available to the admin role, from Localization Workspace. * [Translator Configurations](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/21xR7y~C4VM9ApPihbD0pA "Enable machine translation on your instance by integrating third-party translator services with Dynamic Translation. You can configure one or more translation service providers of your choice."). * [Exclusion Rules](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/jDnE3vrmyV1pid9ulgQDZw "Preserve text such as product names or technical terms during machine translation. With Exclusion Framework in Dynamic Translation, you can specify words and patterns that should not be translated."). * [Create New Rules](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/qkvSE8RhximveAffB~zUcA "Add terms and patterns that shouldn't be machine translated to the Exclusion Rules table. You can create either exact match rules or pattern match rules, and you can edit your rules later."). * [Test Exclusion Rule](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/HZOP1BaVUj~nJ3Dr9hhqVA "Test Exclusion Rule in Dynamic Translation enables you to test your exclusion pattern manually. You can check whether the pattern accurately excludes a text string from translation."). * [Exclusion Provider Pattern](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/_2Lm7KD6hP~nBT7ZEtEP5Q "As part of the configuration of Exclusion Framework in Dynamic Translation, enter the tags used by your translation provider to mark text that should not be machine translated."). * [Properties](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/8Z~hSqRoETdsBi5P16p3fw "Use the Dynamic Translation properties to customize, configure, and control the translation features."). {#lw-configuration-hub__ul_dyf_qvw_3hc}Guided Setups are also available to the admin role, to outline the initial process of configuring Localization Workspace and its prerequisites. Navigate to AllLocalization WorkspaceLocalization Framework Guided Setup or Localization Workspace Guided Setup. *[\>]: and then
