As it is headless, the main feature of this kind of CMS is that it separates the content from the way it will be presented to the user. This is why it is also called an API-First Content Platform because you can easily connect APIs with the platform to work together. The advantage of this is it is possible to integrate the content with unlimited types of software and websites.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>GPI\u2019s Contentful Translation Services Connector<\/h3>\n<p>Taking advantage of the easy way Contentful connects with APIs, we have created a connector that will help you effectively communicate with any customer or client by enabling you to have seamlessly your content available in any language, with just a few clicks.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-36739\" src=\"https:\/\/www.globalizationpartners.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Install-GPI-Contentful-Translation-Services-Connector.png\" alt=\"Install GPI Contentful Translation Services Connector\" width=\"490\" height=\"406\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Connect to the Translation Services<\/h3>\n<p>In order to connect to GPI\u2019s translation services, you will need to authorize the GPI Translation Services Connector app to access your content.<\/p>\n<p>Once you have authorized the GPI Translation Services Connector app, you will need to configure it to connect to our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globalizationpartners.com\/\">translation service<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-36739\" src=\"https:\/\/www.globalizationpartners.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Connect-GPI-Contenful-Translation-Services-Connector.png\" alt=\"Connect GPI Contenful Translation Services Connector\" width=\"655\" height=\"543\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This is a one-time configuration that should be completed during the installation, after you complete it, you will be able to start sending GPI translation requests.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Manage Your Translation Workflow<\/h3>\n<p>Using our app, it is easy to manage your multilingual content. There are two ways to start translating: by sending content right after you finalized editing, or by creating a package of content to be translated.<\/p>\n<p>For the first option, while you are editing, the connector provides a widget in the sidebar that allows you to specify the source and multiple target languages, and that is it. When you click on the \u201cSend for Translation\u201d button, we will receive the required translations in a matter of minutes.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-36739\" src=\"https:\/\/www.globalizationpartners.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Manage-Translation-Workflow.png\" alt=\"GPI's New Translation Portal\" width=\"714\" height=\"230\" \/><\/p>\n<p>If you need to send multiple requests, it is recommended to use the second method, that is by creating a package. To do this, access the connector\u2019s dashboard (going to <strong>Apps<\/strong> &gt; <strong>GPI Translation Services Connector<\/strong>) and click on the \u201cNew Request\u201d button at the top right of the dashboard screen.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-36739\" src=\"https:\/\/www.globalizationpartners.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Create-a-Package-on-GPI-Contentful-Translation-Connector.png\" alt=\"Create a Package on GPI Contentful Translation Connector\" width=\"714\" height=\"230\" \/><\/p>\n<p>A pop-up will open and in just two steps you can send as many entries as you need in only one translation request.<\/p>\n<p>You will first set up project information for the translation request. This includes a Title for reference, the source language (the current language of the copy), and the needed target languages (the languages the content needs to be translated to). You can also send us a comment if you want, or if any clarification is needed.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-36739\" src=\"https:\/\/www.globalizationpartners.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Request-for-Quote-Contentful-Translation-Connector.png\" alt=\"GPI's New Translation Portal\" width=\"412\" height=\"337\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Once the project information has been completed, you will select all entries that you want to send us for translation, there is a filter that you can use to easily find the content.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-36739\" src=\"https:\/\/www.globalizationpartners.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Request-Contentful-Translation-Connector-Quote.png\" alt=\"GPI's New Translation Portal\" width=\"412\" height=\"337\" \/><\/p>\n<p>After clicking on the \u201cSend for Translation\u201d button, we will start working on the translation process.<\/p>\n<p>Once the translations are done, you will receive a notification that the content is ready to be imported; you only need to access the dashboard, locate the projects with the \u201cCompleted\u201d\u00a0 status, and click on the \u201cImport\u201d button.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-36739\" src=\"https:\/\/www.globalizationpartners.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Contentful-Translation-Projects-Status.png\" alt=\"GPI's New Translation Portal\" width=\"596\" height=\"94\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Request a Contentful Translation Services Connector Demo<\/h3>\n<p>You can contact us to request a demonstration of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.translationplugin.com\/index.php\/contentful-translation\/\">GPI Contentful Translation Services Connector<\/a> and see live how this app works, and start using the most simple, powerful, and easy-to-use tool for managing your content in any language with Contentful.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Contentful CMS Contentful is a headless Content Management System (CMS).
