Adding custom actions for Tridion Sites workflows

To handle translations from the Content Manager correctly, you need to create custom human actions in WorldServer and include them in your workflow.

About this task

These actions are:
  • Translated Content Retrieval: This action indicates to Translation Manager that the item content has been translated and it can be retrieved from the translation system.
  • Translated Content Retrieval for Review: Add this action only if you want to include a Review step in your workflow. This action specifically allows the use of the Review functionality and it indicates to Translation Manager that the next step will be Review.

Procedure

  1. In WorldServer, go to Management > Administration > Customization.
  2. In the Custom component type list, select Human Actions.
  3. Select Add.
  4. In the Add Custom Human Actions Component dialog box, do the following:
    1. In the Name box, enter Translated Content Retrieval.
    2. In the Instructions box, enter any instructions might be relevant.
    3. Select OK.
  5. Optional: If you also want to define the Review functionality in Tridion Sites, add another action called Translated Content Retrieval for Review.
