ApproveThis manages your EasyTranslate Integration approvals.

When Approval Meets Translation: A Power Duo for Global Teams

Modern businesses face two critical challenges in content localization: maintaining control over quality and keeping pace with global demand. ApproveThis and EasyTranslate solve these problems together through Zapier-powered automation. While EasyTranslate delivers fast translation through its Language-as-a-Service platform, ApproveThis adds governance through structured approval workflows. The result? Marketing teams launch campaigns faster without compromising compliance, product teams ensure accurate technical translations, and operations leaders eliminate bottlenecks between departments.

Why This Integration Matters

Combining these platforms creates a closed-loop system for global content production. EasyTranslate handles the heavy lifting of translation across 120+ languages, while ApproveThis ensures the right stakeholders verify content before publication. Unlike manual processes where translations get stuck in email threads or Slack channels, this integration automatically routes content to approvers based on predefined rules. Legal teams review disclaimer changes before they're localized. Marketing directors approve campaign translations without needing direct access to EasyTranslate. The system works because ApproveThis approvers only need email access – no additional software licenses required.

Real-World Use Cases That Deliver ROI

Use Case 1: Automated Approval Routing for Translated Assets

How it works: When EasyTranslate completes a translation project, Zapier triggers ApproveThis to create an approval request. Key stakeholders receive email notifications with direct approve/reject buttons. Approved content gets automatically marked as ready in EasyTranslate; rejected items route back to translators with comments.

Who benefits:

• E-commerce companies: Approve product descriptions in 15 languages before updating websites
• Tech startups: Validate UI translations with regional beta testers
• Healthcare providers: Ensure patient education materials meet local compliance standards

A European fashion retailer reduced time-to-market by 40% using this workflow. Their country managers now approve localized product copy within 24 hours instead of chasing emails across time zones.

Use Case 2: Instant Translation Project Initiation Post-Approval

How it works: When an ApproveThis workflow approves source content (like a new brochure), Zapier triggers EasyTranslate to create a translation project. This eliminates manual file uploads and ensures only final-approved content enters localization.

Who benefits:

• Publishing houses: Automatically translate manuscripts after editorial sign-off
• Manufacturers: Localize safety manuals immediately upon engineering approval
• Enterprise IT teams: Initiate software string translations after UX validation

A cybersecurity firm eliminated 12 hours/week of project setup work by automating translation brief creation. Their engineers now focus on core tasks instead of administrative work.

Key Features That Make It Work

ApproveThis brings essential governance tools to EasyTranslate's translation engine:

Conditional Approval Paths: Route legal documents to compliance officers while sending marketing content to brand managers – all within the same workflow.

Budget Controls: Automatically escalate translation projects exceeding $5k to finance directors using approval thresholds.

Real-Time Collaboration: Translators and approvers exchange feedback directly in the approval thread, maintaining context across languages.

Delegation Rules: Keep projects moving when approvers travel – temporary delegates receive automatic reassignments without workflow changes.

Setup Guide: 4 Steps to Automated Workflows

1. Connect Accounts: Create a Zapier account and connect your ApproveThis and EasyTranslate instances.

2. Choose Triggers: Select either "New Translated Content" (EasyTranslate) or "New Request" (ApproveThis) as your starting point.

3. Map Critical Fields: Link translation project IDs to approval tickets for end-to-end tracking. Attach source files and translated content as PDF previews.

4. Test & Launch: Run test approvals with sample content to verify routing logic before full deployment.

Team-Specific Advantages

Marketing Teams

Launch localized campaigns 2x faster by eliminating approval delays. Regional managers approve translations directly from mobile devices while EasyTranslate handles version control.

Operations Leaders

Track translation spend in real time. Approval thresholds automatically flag projects exceeding budget limits, while consolidated dashboards show pending requests across all departments.

External Partners

Clients approve translated materials through simple email links – no EasyTranslate logins required. Maintain brand consistency across agencies and freelance translators.
