Creating bulk translations for a help center article using AI (EAP)

With bulk translations, you can create multiple translations for a help center article simultaneously. Instead of translating articles one at a time, you can generate translations in bulk, which helps you localize content faster and reduce repetitive work. Using bulk translation to localize article content helps you support customers in different regions and keep help center content consistent across languages.

Summary: ◀▼
You can create multiple AI-generated translations for a help center article at once, speeding up localization and maintaining content consistency across languages.

This feature supports multiple languages and helps you manage translation workflows while keeping control over accuracy and tone.




With bulk translations, you can create multiple translations for a help center article
simultaneously. Instead of translating articles one at a time, you can generate

work. Using bulk translation to localize article content helps you support customers in
different regions and keep help center content consistent across languages.
You can generate multiple translations from within the translation panel of the article
editor, then immediately review and approve or reject each translation. You can also
review and approve or reject multiple translations at once from within the article list
view of Knowledge admin. From either view, you can add translations, generate them for
selected languages, review the results, and decide whether to approve, reject, or
regenerate them before publishing. This gives you a faster translation workflow while
still keeping review and quality control in your hands.

Creating bulk translations for an article

You can use bulk translations to create multiple AI-generated translated versions of
your help center article simultaneously. Before you begin, make sure the article has
a default language version and that the target languages are available.

To create a bulk translation for an article
In your help center or Knowledge admin, create a new article or edit an existing article.
In the article editor, click Translations ( ) on the collapsible panel.

Click Generate translations ( ) to open the Generate translations
panel.
Select the languages for the translations you want to add from the
list. This list displays all languages that you've enabled across all
brands in your account. If you do not see a list of languages, then you
first need to enable languages for your help center (see Configuring your help center to support multiple
languages).


Click Generate translations.
The system uses AI to generate translated versions of the article in
the languages you selected.


If you want to review the translations before accepting or declining them,
continue to Reviewing bulk
translations to perform a side-by-side review of the source and
translated article before accepting or declining the
translation. Otherwise, to accept or decline the translations without
reviewing them, do one of the following:

Click Accept all ( ) or Decline all
( ) under the AI drafts section
of the Translations panel to accept or decline all drafts at
once.

Click the options ( ) menu on individual translations in the
AI drafts section, then select:

Create draft to keep the translation and mark it as
ready to publish. The translation then appears under the
Languages section in the Translations panel, and is no longer
labeled as an AI draft.

Decline to decline the translation.










Reviewing bulk translations before accepting or declining

After translations are generated in the editor, you can review them before publishing
to make sure they are accurate and ready for your audience. Reviewing translations
helps you check tone, terminology, and meaning before the content goes live.

To review a bulk translation for an article
In your help center or Knowledge admin, create a new article or edit an existing article.
In the article editor, click Translations ( ) on the collapsible panel.

Open the Translation review page by doing one of the following:
Click the options ( ) menu on the translation, then select
Review.

In the Translations panel, select a generated translation.

The translation appears alongside the source language translation in
a side-by-side comparison view.

Review the translation.

Choose one of the following actions:

Create draft to keep the translation and mark it as ready to
publish. The translation then appears under the Languages section in
the Translations panel, and is no longer labeled as an AI draft.

Decline to decline the translation. The translation is
removed from the AI draft list in the Translations panel. To
regenerate this translation, see Creating bulk translations for an
article above.



Repeat the process for any other translations you want to review.
