Translate content

Tallyfy offers two translation features:

  1. Interface language - Change the display language for menus, buttons, and system text
  2. Content translation - Translate user-generated text using Microsoft Azure AI (requires admin setup)

See global workplace language requirements to understand which countries mandate or recommend translation of process content like SOPs and employee handbooks.

  1. Click the globe icon in the top menu bar.
  2. In the App Language section, click Edit, pick your language and click Save.
  3. The interface switches to your selected language.

Tallyfy supports English, Spanish, French, German, Chinese, Japanese, and others.

Administrator setup for content translation

Section titled “Administrator setup for content translation”

Content translation uses Microsoft Azure Cognitive Services and supports 100+ languages.

  • Active Microsoft Azure account with translation services enabled
  • The key, resource name and region of your Azure Translator resource
  • Administrator access in your Tallyfy organization

(See the Azure setup guide for detailed Azure configuration.)

  1. Azure configuration - Create a “Translator” service resource and note its key, its resource name (the name you gave it) and its region.
  2. Tallyfy configuration - Go to Settings > Integrations. In the Translation section, find the Azure card and click Configure.
  3. Key - Paste your Azure key into the Key field.
  4. Resource name - Enter the name of your Translator resource in the Resource name field.
  5. Region - Enter your Azure region in the Region field. All three fields are required.
  6. Activation - Click Save. Tallyfy tests the connection with Azure first and shows Azure config failed if the test fails.

Once it’s configured, everyone in your organization, guests included, can pick a content language from the globe icon.

  1. Click the globe icon in the top menu bar.
  2. In the Content Language section, click Edit, pick the language you want content translated into and click Save.
  3. The globe turns green when Azure is connected and your content language isn’t No Translation. It pulses while a translation is in progress.
  4. Tallyfy translates task titles, task descriptions, form field labels and document text into your selected language. Comments and form answers stay as written.
