Knak offers translation capabilities through a variety of options, including Knak AI, manual translations, and integrations with several providers.
In addition to these options, you are also able to manually download an XLIFF file of your base asset, translate it however you'd like, and upload the translated XLIFF file back into Knak to complete your translation.
Downloading your XLIFF file
Open your Knak asset and navigate to the Translate tab
Click Download Base Asset XLIFF
Translating your base XLIFF file
At this stage, you can use your external translation tool to translate your base asset into whichever languages you require. Once complete, you'll have several XLIFF files, one for each of your translated languages.
Uploading your XLIFF files to Knak
Click Translate Now on the Translate tab
Select Use Knak Translations in the bottom right corner of the modal
Select your source language and the languages you translated your XLIFF file into, then click Next: Sources
On the Source Selection page, toggle the translation source to Upload Xliff. From here you can either browse for the related language file or drag it into the drop target.
Note: If the file you upload either a) doesn't match the content of your base asset or b) doesn't match the language specified (eg. a French-translated XLIFF in the French row), you will see a warning and will need to reupload the correct XLIFF file
Once you've successfully uploaded your XLIFF files, click Next: Confirmation
Finally, review your translation summary and click Submit Request
And that's it! You've just completed a translation in Knak using our manual XLIFF download/upload process.
