Collecting Assets for Translation

The first step in sending assets out for translation is collecting the assets from Oracle Eloqua.

  • You can collect all translatable assets from a campaign canvas in Oracle Eloqua and add them to the Lionbridge App. This is the recommended method for collecting assets for translation as you work on a campaign canvas. For details, see Collecting Assets from a Campaign Canvas in Oracle Eloqua.

Tip: If a campaign canvas is open for editing in Oracle Eloqua, then opening the Lionbridge App automatically collects the assets on the campaign canvas and displays them in the New Translatio page.

  • You can collect one asset from within Oracle Eloqua and add it to the Lionbridge App. This is the recommended method for collecting assets for translation as you work on them individually. For details, see Collecting One Asset from within Oracle Eloqua.

Tip: If an asset is open for editing in Oracle Eloqua, then opening the Lionbridge App automatically collects the asset and displays it in the New Translation page.

After you collect assets, you can view them before you send them out for translation. For details, see Viewing Collected Assets.
