How to translate content from localised attributes in bulk using AI on the PIM?

Written by Jaurel WANJI

Here’s how to use AI-powered bulk translation on the PIM.

  • Go to the advanced search page, select the relevant Product Type, adjust your filters if necessary, then click ‘Select all results’.

  • Click on ‘Actions’ and then on ‘AI Translation’.

  • A window will appear, from which you can select the source language, the target language(s), the attributes to be translated and the translation behaviour.

  • This feature applies only to the ‘Product’ object type.

  • Only localised attributes can be translated.

  • The user must have the necessary permissions for the relevant languages, products and attributes.

  • If you only wish to translate certain attributes, tick ‘Specific attributes’, select the attributes of your choice and click Next.

  • A second window will appear, allowing you to choose the post-translation behaviour. Select the option of your choice (at present, only ‘Apply and save changes instantly’ is available) and then click ‘Start the translation’.

  • You will receive a notification once the translation is complete.

  • You will also be able to monitor the progress of the translation project via the activity report.

This action cannot be undone. Once the translation has started, it is not possible to cancel the operation or revert to the previous values. Before enabling ‘Replace existing content’ for a large number of products, test the translation on a small selection of products.

You can also find out more about bulk translation by consulting our documentation on the subject.
