Translation of existing file metadata

With the AI Suite, starting from versions 13.9.0 and 12.15.0, you have the option to translate existing file metadata using the WorkflowManager.

The following section explains the procedure step by step.

1. Where do I find the function?

You can access the input mask as follows:

Through the file list backend module:

  1. Open the AI Suite file list module
  2. Select the desired folder in the file list
  3. Select “Translate Metadata”

Through the context menu (in the file list module):

  1. Select the desired folder in the file list and open the context menu with a right-click
  2. Select “AI Suite”
  3. Select “Translate File Metadata”

2. Structure of the initial input mask

  1. Select the metadata field (by default, “All Fields” is selected here)
  2. Select the source language (all standard languages of your entry pages are available here)
  3. Select the target language (all translation languages of your entry pages are available here)
  4. Show only file metadata from included files if needed
  5. Display files for translation (the found files including title and alternative text of the selected folder will be displayed)

3. Translating the metadata

Now you can select the found results and finally initiate the batch processing.

The results mask is structured as follows:

  1. Select the AI model
  2. Select a glossary (only displayed if at least one glossary is available for the selected translation)
  3. Select all or individual file metadata
  4. Execute translation

4. Validation of the generated metadata translations

When you generate the metadata translations with AI, they are subsequently generated step by step in the background and added to the TaskEngine.
