Adding Target Languages to Zendesk
Before starting the localization of your content, it’s important to ensure that the correct and necessary languages are enabled in your Zendesk instance. To do this, take a look at the steps below:
Start by accessing your Zendesk instance with your admin username and password.
Navigate to the Guide Admin section
And from the menu options on the left side, select Settings > Language Settings. First ensure that the languages below are correct and needed for your localization projects. If not, select the option to Add new language.
Note that the specific language variant for the source and target languages in your Zendesk instance will also need to be selected in the Locale instance.
This will enable you to select the language from the drop down, and enter a unique title for your Help Page in the necessary language.
Once you have selected all of the necessary languages and entered the Help Center title name, select Save in the top right corner.
Once you’ve added the language(s) needed for your projects, you’re now ready to Add the Zendesk Connector to your Locale instance or Create a Locale project with the Zendesk Connector.
