What we deliver for Zendesk teams
How Transifex fits into your Zendesk workflow
Once the integration is set up, here’s how your team manages multilingual support content inside Transifex.

Step 1: Manage and prioritize content
From within Transifex, choose which Help Center articles, macros, or active ticket queues to translate first. Organize by priority, campaign, or language launch schedule.

Step 2: Translate with your chosen method
Use Transifex AI for fast, brand-aware translations, integrate MT engines like DeepL or Google Translate for scale, or assign work to professional linguists for sensitive or technical content. Translation Memory and glossaries ensure consistency across all channels.

Step 3: Review, approve, and go live
TQI automatically scores each translation. High-quality results publish instantly to Zendesk, while flagged items go through review. You can release content live or as drafts for internal QA before customer access.
