Build predefined configurations for repeated translation workloads

Starting on June 30, 2025, Translation Hub is officially deprecated and will no longer be supported. You can continue using Translation Hub until September 20, 2026, when it will be shut down.

For each portal, you can create predefined configurations, known as translation templates. These templates let portal users quickly and consistently perform common translation tasks.

For example, if users frequently translate from English to Spanish with a particular glossary, you can create a template with these settings. Portal users can then select this template to request translations instead of having to specify the source language, target language, and glossary each time.

Translation Hub has a limit on the number of administrator-created templates per portal. For more information, see Quotas and limits .

Create a translation template

You create translation templates for portals by using the Google Cloud console. These templates are available to all users in that portal.

You cannot edit templates after you create them. Instead, you must delete and recreate them.

1. In the Translation Hubsection of the Google Cloud console, go to the Portalspage.

   Go to the Portals page

2. Click a portal to view its details page.

3. Click Translation templatesto open the Translation templatespane.

   1. Click Add an item.

   2. Enter a name for the template.

   3. Set the source language.

   4. Select a target language. You can also select a glossary to use with that target language.

   5. To add additional target languages, click Add rule.

4. Click Save.

Portal users can also create their own templates within each portal, which are not shared with any other portal user. For more information, see Translate documents .
