The Translated job portal is the vendor portal for the Italian company Translated (https://www.translated.com). There is only one instance of this system running. The majority of work in this portal is outsourced to freelance translators. Job offers are not published on the portal, they are sent via email, so an email monitoring solution via Make.com is required for the setup to work. We recommend that you set up the Auto-approve functionality.
Use cases:
BeLazy supports integration with Translated through a specialized connector that enables email-based job offer management. The main use cases where the Translated integration is valuable:
- You receive job offers from Translated via email and want these managed in your business management system or tracker
- You want automatic task acceptance for email-delivered job notifications
- You want to deliver projects back automatically when they are completed in your business management system or tracker
Integration type:
The Translated integration uses web scraping to access the job portal combined with email monitoring for job offer notifications. This unique approach handles Translated's email-based job distribution system effectively.
Requirements:
There are no requirements to use the Translated portal other than having a valid username and password. You can register on the same page where you log in: https://www.translated.net/top. To use the Translated job portal, you will only need the URL, user name, password that you use on the portal.
Expected URL format:
The URL is always https://www.translated.net/top
Translated-specific configuration:
No additional connector-specific configuration options are available for Translated. The integration automatically adapts to the portal's email-based job offer system and MateCat integration requirements.

Typical issues and how to resolve them:
- Email monitoring setup: Projects are offered via email only. You need to set up a Make.com connection to BeLazy's Synchronize Project function, and pass the job URL that you can parse from the email. Alternatively, you can use any API automation function to invoke synchronization. Contact us for help with this setup.
- MateCat workflow: Since files are not downloaded and most jobs require MateCat, ensure your workflow is set up to handle the extracted MateCat login information for seamless project access.
- Project bundling and workflow structure: Each workflow in Translated is single-step. You can use the job bundling to turn consecutive steps such as translation, revision into one workflow in your business management system or tracker. Daily and monthly project bundling and project bundling creating one project with different language pairs are supported.
- Instruction mapping: All instructions are extracted from the various instruction fields in Translated, and can be automatically reused in your customizable, client and program-specific instructions to the project managers and the vendors.
- Synchronization: Only email-based synchronization is possible. The connector synchronizes immediately when an email with a new job offer is processed through Make.com automation.
