How to Configure Automatic Translations
The Automatic Translations feature provides researchers with real-time translations for participant responses, exportable translated data, and automatic translation of study configurations.
Automatic Translations are enabled by default for all multilingual studies. Analysts can define multi-language options to trigger Automatic Translations during study creation.
To configure Automatic Translations for a Study, follow these steps:
- Create a New Study.
- Use the Study Languages dropdown to select the language(s) you want to translate study content to, which will only be visible to Admins (Analysts, Moderators, and Clients).
- Use the subsequent Participant Languages dropdown to select the Study Languages that should be visible to participants.
- Note: The Participant Languages menu will only become available if more than one Study Language has been selected.
- Complete study creation by clicking Next.
By default, a maximum of three Study Languages can be selected, however, Admins can contact Support to override this limit.
Note: When copying a study for multi-market projects, the original Study Language(s) will remain enabled and cannot be deselected; however, the study-specific Participant Language(s) can be modified. If the configured Study Languages must be modified after study creation, Admins can contact Support for assistance.
How to set your export language:
Automatic Translations allow researchers to export translated study data in their preferred language. To access this feature, a study must already have multiple languages configured.
To set your export data in another language, follow these steps:
- Click on the Language Preferences icon in the bottom-left corner of the interface.
- Using the Export Language dropdown menu, select your desired language for export.
- Toggle on Translated responses if you would like to include translated content such as participant responses, discussion replies and task comments.
- Export your Study Response Data in the format of your choosing.
