Exporting Bulk Content for Translation from Site Management Tools

In Site Management Tools (SMT), you can find and export content that needs translating from the Translations tab in Overview Mode. For details, see Translations Tab User Interface. You can export all CMS Pages and CMS Content Types supported by SMT. The Translations tab lets you manage original translations, content updates, and see any content with pending translations. Each file is saved as an individual XLIFF file, compressed into a ZIP, and saved to the File Cabinet. For details, see File Cabinet Overview. You can also choose to save the file locally.

Watch the following video for information about how to export translation content in bulk using SMT.
