Translations

Translations controls the project-wide interface and validation messages used by the form engine. This includes common labels, instructions, errors, and question-type messages—not the question text authored inside an individual form.

Where to find it

1. Open your project in the encatch dashboard.
2. Go to Settings.
3. Under Feedback Settings, select Translations.

Add a language

1. Select Add language.
2. Search for and select a language.
3. Review the generated translation pack.

When a starter pack exists, Encatch prefills it. Otherwise, the new language starts from English so you can replace the text manually.

Edit translation fields

Select a language, then edit its messages by section. You can:

• Filter by question type or section.
• Search by field name, key, default text, or current translation.
• Edit individual messages while keeping supported template tokens intact.
• Reset a language to its starter translations.
• Remove a language that is no longer needed.

Auto-translate messages

Use the auto-translate action to translate all fields, visible fields, or selected fields into one or more enabled languages. Review AI-generated translations before publishing them.

Save drafts and publish

• Save draft keeps your changes in the editor without changing live forms.
• Publish saves the current draft and uploads a new translation file for the form engine. Live forms then begin using the published messages.

Fix any highlighted validation issues before saving or publishing.

Permissions

Viewing translations requires feedback settings access. Editing drafts, auto-translating, and publishing require update access.
