Learners can now translate the text on any Spaces page or Social post into their preferred language at the click of a button.
Released
Spaces
Overview
Content in Spaces has historically been fixed in whichever language it was authored. This release lets learners translate the text content of any Spaces page or Social post into their preferred language, with no admin setup required.
What's new
- A language selector on Spaces pages, showing every language supported within the tenant
- Automatic translation of page text content on selection, with a notice where translation was machine generated
- An option to translate individual comments on Social posts into a preferred language
- Automatically enabled for every tenant with more than one supported language
Why / benefits
- Lets learners access content in the language they are most comfortable with
- A single page can serve learners across multiple languages without duplication
- Reduces authoring overhead, since teams do not need to create and maintain separate pages per language
How it works
- A learner visits a Spaces page and, if their tenant supports more than one language, sees a language selector
- Selecting a language automatically translates the page's text content
- Where machine translation was used, a notice on the page flags this to the learner
Use cases
- An employee based in a different country to where a Space was authored switches the page to their own language and completes it with confidence.
- A multilingual retail organisation maintains one version of a compliance Space, and learners in each country read it in their own language.
People/personas
- Employees working in a language different from the one content was authored in
- Organisations with global or multilingual workforces, particularly in retail, aviation, telecoms and hospitality
