Importing Translated Content

When the translation project is complete and has been returned to the Connector, the translated content is ready to import into Episerver, where you can review it. You can import a project even if it has not been fully translated. However, to import and publish a page, all its dependent blocks must be translated. The Connector automatically updates translation projects with redelivered assets. If an imported project has redelivered assets, its status is 100%/Ready for import. There are three ways to import translated content into Episerver:

Recommendation: After importing translated content, you should review the corresponding translated assets before publishing them. For detailed instructions, see Reviewing Translated Assets.
