The LILT + SDL WorldServer connector enables companies to automatically push and pull web content between WorldServer and LILT. This saves you time by providing seamless localization while letting you continue to work in the systems you know.

​
Configuration

  1. Within WorldServer, create a new user with the role of pm or customer_pm and provide its login credentials to your contact at LILT. For this example, we’ll call the user “LILT WorldServer User”.
  2. Create a workflow template that assigns the LILT WorldServer User as the linguist under the translate step.

​
Workflow

Once the connector is configured, content is automatically moved between LILT and WorldServer as outlined in the sections below.

​
Project creation

Create a translation project in WorldServer using the workflow template created in the configuration steps. This automatically assigns the project to the LILT WorldServer User. LILT periodically checks for new projects assigned to the LILT WorldServer User. When found, new content is automatically pulled into LILT to create new LILT Projects where the content can be translated. Existing memories in WorldServer are automatically shared to LILT and are continuously updated with changes made in LILT. In WorldServer, you can specify any TMs you want to want shared with LILT.

​
Project completion

LILT periodically checks for LILT Projects marked as Done. When found, the content of these completed Projects is automatically sent back into WorldServer and the workflow step is advanced for final review and approval in WorldServer.
