Localization
Localization is a powerful feature that supports (i18n) across your spaces.
By default, every space has theย Englishย language, meaning all the labels displayed to users on the public documentation will be set in English. However, if your space targets a different language audience, fear not! We've got you covered with comprehensive language support.
We consider that a language translation is just another version of a space, so the process of creating a space that supports a different language than English is similar to the Version Links๏ปฟ .
Accessing Settings
- Click on the gear icon (โ๏ธ) to access settings.
- Navigate to the Version Links tab under the Space Connections section.
โน๏ธ For public documentations
Make sure your documentation is Public and visible to everyone, before you start creating version links.
Enabling Version Links
- Activate the version link feature for the desired space.
Building Version Links
- Choose the space you want to Clone from. This allows the selection of the current space or its children.
- Select the version language. You can choose the following languages:
- ๐บ๐ธ English
- ๐ซ๐ท French
- ๐ฉ๐ช German
- ๐ช๐ธ Spanish
- ๐ฎ๐น Italian
- ๐ต๐น Portuquese
- ๐ท๐บ Russian
- ๐ฐ๐ท Korean
- ๐น๐ญ Thai
- ๐จ๐ณ Chinese
- ๐ฎ๐ฉ Indonesian
- Select the space language corresponding to the label.
- Click on + Create Version to proceed.
Repeat the Process
- Continue adding Version Links until your desired structure is achieved
Finalizing Setup
- Exit the Space Settings window.
- Publish the space to propagate changes.
๐ง Remember!
You have to publish all clones/versions in order to be visible on the public documentation.
We automatically detect if the Version Links are meant to translate a space or to define multiple product versions.
For the moment, we are supporting (English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Korean, Japanese, Thai, Chinese and Indonesian).
Once published, you will be able to see the changes in public spaces. The versions will be displayed based on the context. If the Space does contain a Space Link and also has multiple versions, it will be displayed in the Space Link Tab:
Otherwise, it will appear above our search bar:
This solution provides great flexibility based on your organization's needs. We can create more complex setups, like wiring Spaces, with versions that need translation or vice-versa.
- Translate the Employee Handbook into multiple languages (e.g., English, French, Italian).
- Customize product versions for specific languages and markets.
The Auto-Translation with AI feature allows you to automatically translate all documents within a space using AI-powered translation. This helps streamline content localization and ensure accessibility across different languages.

- Navigate to Space Settings.
- Go to the Version Links section.
- Toggle the option for Enable Auto-Translation with AI.
- Create your new version, selecting the language
- When enabled, all documents in the space will be translated automatically using AI.
- Translations may take a few minutes to complete, depending on the size of the documents.
- This feature consumes tokens for processing the translation.
๏ปฟโ ๏ธ Warning
- Ensure you have sufficient tokens available to complete translations.
- For optimal performance, avoid making significant content changes while translations are in progress (wait till the successfull notification is present on the page)
When the main space is published, the Auto-Translation AI will detect updates and automatically translate the updated content from all versions of the documents. This ensures that translations stay current without requiring additional steps.
