Integração BLEND

Integrate your Crowdin projects with the BLEND agency and allow BLEND translators to work with translation files in Crowdin Editor.

A integração fornece:

• Instant synchronization of localization content from Crowdin to BLEND using Crowdin tasks.
• Possibility for BLEND translators to easily access and work in Crowdin Editor.
• 2-way synchronization of comments between BLEND and Crowdin.

Connecting BLEND with Crowdin

You need to have a client account in BLEND to enable integration and sufficient Credit Balance so you can use BLEND translation services. Register at BLEND if you don’t have an account yet.

Siga estas etapas para estabelecer a conexão:

1. Log in to Crowdin.
2. On your profile home page, open Store and select Vendors.
3. Select BLEND.
4. Clique em conectar conta.
5. Enter Public Key and Secret Key from the BLEND API keys tab. Clique em enviar chave.

Criando tarefas para sincronização de conteúdo

To send the localization content to BLEND, you need to create tasks in the Crowdin project. Siga estas instruções passo a passo para criação de tarefas:

1. Click Create Task using the Tasks tab on the project home page or straight from the vendor page via Store > Vendors. Ensure to select the project from the drop-down list when creating a task via Store > Vendors.

   Note: Project managers can create tasks for vendors only using the Tasks tab on the project home page.

1. Defina os parâmetros da tarefa:
   • Task Name – specify the name of the task that will be visible to BLEND translators
   • Description (optional) – add more details about the task that might be useful for BLEND translators
   • Type – select Translate by vendor or Proofread by vendor. For Proofread by vendor, you have two additional options to choose from:
     • Include translated strings only – Proofreading project with your content will be created on the BLEND side.
     • Include untranslated strings only – Translation + Editing project with your content will be created on the BLEND side.
       Read more about BLEND Editing project.
   • Translation Vendor – select BLEND
   • Experiência –defina o conhecimento mais adequado ao seu projeto
   • Strings – define if all untranslated/not approved strings should be available for translation/proofreading or only those that were modified within a specific period
   • Filter by labels – define needed labels if you’d like to send for translation/proofreading only a specific set of strings
   • Files – select the files that should be translated/proofread
   • Languages – select target languages (a separate task will be created for each selected language)
2. Click Create Task for project files to be sent to BLEND.

In case you change the task’s name or description or update the files selected for the existing task, it won’t be re-synchronized with BLEND.

Translation and Proofreading Process

When the task is created, it’s automatically sent to BLEND and visible to BLEND translators/proofreaders in the Open Projects tab. BLEND translator/proofreader will need to Start Project and then use the Open Workbench button to access Crowdin Editor.

A translator/proofreader will be logged in Crowdin with BLEND profile data to work on content localization. When the work starts, the related task in Crowdin will automatically move to the In Progress status. And when the work is finished (project marked as Completed on the BLEND side), the task will gain Done status in Crowdin.

Discussões e Comentários

If you need to add some details to an already created task, you can add Comments.

Comments are synchronized with BLEND so that a translator can see them in the Customer Discussion section and reply if needed. Translator messages left in the Customer Discussion section in the BLEND project are also automatically sent to Crowdin and shown in the Comments section inside the Crowdin task.

Managing BLEND Integration

Access integration by opening Store > Vendors, select BLEND. Você pode Mudar de conta ou Desconectar conta se necessário.
