The Text & Translations feature allows you to edit all the text in your project at once and to add translations for all languages. This is especially helpful when you want to review all of your content in a slightly different perspective to make sure everything is consistent and correct.

Bing Auto Translate

• Sogolytics offers the integrated Bing translator, a third-party tool, to automatically translate your project into additional languages. You may choose to translate all or selected text. The current text in the Primary language is used as the basis for each auto-translation.
• Please note that running auto-translation will replace any selected text that is already translated. Links or other HTML formatting will also be removed during auto-translation, and formatting should be reviewed before saving.
• To save the translation, click to save at the bottom of this screen.
• Disclaimer: Sogolytics provides no guarantee regarding the accuracy or completeness of the translation. Based on the options available in this tool, some languages may not be available for automatic translation.
• It is highly recommended to review each translation manually with a language expert.

Good to Know

• The file you are uploading must be the same translation template file you downloaded.
• The file format should not be altered. Any changes (adding or removing columns or rows, etc.) may cause uploads to fail.
• If piping is included in your text, do not alter/edit piping codes (Example: [[2805169]]).
• If translations are not provided for any question, answer, or message, the primary language text will be added.
• If you have changed, added, or deleted survey questions or answers after downloading the translation file, uploads may fail.
