Configuring the Content API Connection and Translation Settings

On the General Settings page, you configure:

  • translation settings
To configure the Connector:
  1. As a System Administrator, assign yourself, or create a user account, with the x_73376_connector.admin role.

  2. Impersonate or authenticate as that user.

  3. Navigate to Lionbridge Connector > General Settings.

  1. Configure the following settings:

* To instruct the Connector to automatically accept all translation jobs without requiring a review first, select this check box.

**Note:** This feature requires the Lionbridge Connector Global Components update set. For more information, see Installing the Lionbridge Connector Global Components Update Set.
