How to Add a New Project or Set Up a Rule

After setting up your integration in the Console, you can choose two options for adding projects: manual or automatic:

Manual configuration involves a single step: Select a project and the routing, with which all jobs in the selected project from Phrase will be translated.

Several projects can be configured at the same time. If several rules conflict with each other (same conditions but different actions), the first rule in the list (higher in the table) will be applied.

Selecting the automation option will display a screen where you can choose triggers to start the automatic processing of translations via Intento.

You can select the status of the job, who it is assigned to, or the step the project is in as triggers. You can specify any combination of triggers:

You can also set a fuzzy match threshold for translation memory, which is calculated on the TMS side. Segments will be translated if their scoring falls below this threshold.

Segments that come with fuzzy match values above the configured value will not be translated, and the translation will be taken from memory by the translation from TMS.

After creating a rule, it will appear on the settings page. If a job from Phrase meets the conditions of this rule's triggers, it will be processed through Intento:

Multiple rules can also be added:

Any projects within Phrase TMS containing jobs that match the configured rules exactly will be automatically processed using your chosen routing.

  2. Select an existing project or create a new one:

    This project must be added to the Intento Console manually or, if you are using automatic mode, must match the configured rule. To learn how to do so, see the sections above.

  3. Create a job and add a file to translate. Then click Create:
