AI bridge translation does not use terms of my groupshare server termbase, local termbase works

Fanxiang NIE — Thu, 09 Jul 2026 08:47:46 GMT

Environment: Trados studio 2026, groupshare server is updated to the latest 2020 SR2 CU15.

AI tells me this is because my server runs on HTTP with no SSL encryption, and AI mandate HTTPS connection. Is this true?

MultiTerm Extract - Export fail

Inés Rodríguez-Borlado Garzón — Fri, 12 Jun 2026 13:37:39 GMT

Export fails in MultiTerm Extract 2024.

Product version: MultiTerm Extract 2024

Workflow:

Import bilingual XML file.
Validate terms.
Select Export > XML.
Confirm the export settings and click OK/Finish.

Expected result:
The validated terms are exported to an XML file.

Issue:
The export window closes immediately without any error message, and no XML file is generated.

Troubleshooting already performed:

Uninstalled and reinstalled MultiTerm Extract 2024.
Repeated the process with the same XML file.
The issue persists.

Could you please advise how to export the validated terms correctly, or whether there are any known issues with XML export in MultiTerm Extract 2024?

Thanks.

Antidote connector problem with Antidote refreshing constantly as soon as a file isn't tiny.

Patrice Philippi — Tue, 02 Jun 2026 21:30:17 GMT

I am using the Antidot software from Druid to spellcheck/grammar check my translation in Trados.

When dealing with a small file, the Antidote 12 software interact properly with Trados Studio 2024 (SR1 18.1.3.6657).

But for example, when opening Antidote 12 on a medium file of 12k, it took 4 minutes until the Antidote windows was opened. Then I just moved the Antidote window and again, a "refreshing" popup goes on for 4 more minutes. I then page down, and again Antidote is refreshing for 4 more minutes.

A few months ago, the connector between both software was working fine and I was able to run Antidote smoothly on bigger files.

I contacted Antidote and run their "diagnosis" software, they came back to me saying all fine - there is a problem with the connector provided by Trados. So Trados needs to fix it.

Did anyone else experience the same bug?

I HAD DELETED EVERYTHING A MONTH AGO.I registered with DeepL, and everything changed. I have the API plan and the API key, but it doesn't work. Do you think I should change the DeepL translation provider?

The AppStore contents -- app or plugin? (Not an important question)

Mats Linder — Tue, 04 Nov 2025 14:40:55 GMT

I have noticed that some providers call their product "plugin" while others use the term "app". Is there a real difference between the concepts, or is it just a question of preference?

How to use Azure openAI in Trados Studio 2024

Bettina Weinmann — Fri, 19 Sep 2025 12:20:10 GMT

Dear all,

does anybody know which Azure openAi option we can use to only do some minor tests regarding the integration of LLM/Azure in Trados 2024 and machine translation?

There are numerous options on the Azure price list (Azure OpenAI Service – Preise | Microsoft Azure, country Germany) and we don't know which is/are suitable.

Furthermore, is there anyboday who has already set up an Azure account and can quickly guide us through this process?

Thank you for your help!

Updating plugin - developer form

Aleksandra Timofejeva — Mon, 19 May 2025 13:33:37 GMT

Hello!

I know that previously (and perhaps currently too), plugin signing was done via e-mail. Is that stil the case?

I have heard that there is a developer form to fill and attach plugin for signing, but it is beta access. If so, is it possible to get access to that form?

Thank you!

How do I update the information on my "app"?

Mats Linder — Tue, 18 Feb 2025 14:04:37 GMT

I have at last finalized the new version of the Trados Studio manual, and now I need to update the presentation on the AppStore site. But I am totally at a loss as to where even to begin, since this is not a piece of software, and all the information I can find relate to software.

But in fact, even if my "app" were software, I might very well be in the situation where all I wanted to do was to change parts of the presentation. And I cannot find any place to do that. (On previous occasions, I usually managed to find the right starting place and go on from there. Not so anymore.)

Uploading plugin updates

Gerhard Kordmann — Fri, 24 Jan 2025 14:15:30 GMT

Hello there,

just so I know I'm doing it right: upgrades are still submitted via app-signing@rws.com?

And the shiny new self-service portal is nearly there? ;-)

Can LLM suggestions take my TMs into account?

Charles Godin — Mon, 13 Jan 2025 16:34:38 GMT

Hi,

My company wil soon test the OpenAI provider in Trados. We're configuring Azure endpoints that we'll use for these tests. We're now looking at how to integrate our ressources in the suggestions. I know there is an checkbox we can check to include the terminolgy from our termbases in the suggestions. However, it's not clear to me if there is a similar option where the suggestion would consider our translation memories to suggest segments with the "voice" of our company. Is there such an option, or do we have to configure our LLM on our side to do it?

Thank you,

Charles

Cannot set up/get AI assistant to work

Tess Whitty — Thu, 14 Nov 2024 22:11:06 GMT

Hi,

I upgraded to Trados Studio 2024 at the ATA conference, mainly because of the AI functionality. But I am unable to get it to work. I have tried to follow the documentation for the plugin: https://appstore.rws.com/Plugin/249?tab=documentation. I have a paid version of ChatGPT 40, and can generate an API without problems, but when inserting it, t he connection is not established. See screenshot:

I also read this: https://docs.rws.com/en-US/trados-studio-2024-1145319/setting-up-and-configuring-ai-assistant-1152152 But the connection is just not established.

Looking forward to any explanation and instructions.

Does the Antidote Verifier plugin support the new Antidote 12?

Cylvie Frechette — Sun, 10 Nov 2024 15:56:50 GMT

Does the Antidote Verifier plugin support the new Antidote 12? I am using Studio 2021 SR2. I have already asked Druide, the makers of Antidote, but they are deferring to RWS for confirming the plugin compatibility, as Trados AppStore is the author of the plugin.

Trados / Star Transit: Adding a space at the end of every sentence

Matthieu Waldburger — Wed, 14 Aug 2024 13:03:01 GMT

Dear Community,

I recently started working for a client who uses Star CLM/Transit as CAT-Tool, whereas I use Trados Studio.

Using the Star Transit Package Handler plugin, I am able to import the Transit packages my client sends me, translate it in Trados, et send back a Transit return package.

My client has now told me that everytime they import my return package, they need to manually add an empty space at the end of every sentence, as Star CLM/Transit doesn't automatically add an empty space between each sentence/segment (which is standard for other CAT Tools like Trados).

I was hoping someone could help me find a solution, since my client is asking me to fix this as they don't want to perform this manual action each time I deliver a translation?

Adding an empty space when I'm translating in Trados also isn't a suitable solution for me, as it will populate my TM with "faulty" segments (and I also believe that it wouldn't work).

Thanks in advance for any help.

Fiter funtion of GlossaryConverter doesn't filter term level

Nils Jörn — Mon, 22 Jul 2024 13:17:05 GMT

Dear all.

dear Gerhard Kordmann ,

currently, I'm trying to convert a tbx file with GlossaryConverter (vesion 6.4.8912.38944) into a Passolo glossary. But, I want only forbidden terms in that glossary. Therefore, I'm using the filter "German (Germany).Term.Status = "forbidden", which seams to work in general.

Unfortunately, in the glossary are not the terms from term level, which have the status "forbidden", but the entry level "term".

To clarify, what I mean, please have a look a the following excerpt:

"<termEntry id="XYZ">
        <descrip type="subjectField">XYZ</descrip>
        <descrip type="tags">Düker</descrip>
        <descrip type="Textsorte">XYZ</descrip>
        <descrip type="Abteilung">ES</descrip>
        <descrip type="XYZ</descrip>
        <langSet xml:lang="de-DE">
          <descripGrp>
            <descrip type="definition"></descrip>
          </descripGrp>
          <descripGrp>
            <descrip type="definitionSource"></descrip>
          </descripGrp>
          <tig>
            <term>Dueker</term>
            <descrip type="Term Type">fullForm</descrip>
            <descrip type="Status">forbidden</descrip>
          </tig>
          <tig>

As you can see, "Dueker" is set as "forbidden".

But the glossary does not contain "Dueker". Instead, it contains "Düker".

Please be so kind to let me know, how to use the filter to get only "Dueker" in the glossary, not "Düker".

If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to let me know.

Thank you very much in advance for your support.

Best regards and have a nice day.

Vendor profile and how to sell

Ivana Bojčić — Mon, 22 Jul 2024 13:10:30 GMT

Hello,

I have a vendor profile, but I'm currently purchasing licenses from another translation company because they offer me a larger discount.

Could someone explain how the vendor system works? I'd like to sell Trados products through my channels, but I'm confused about the process.

So:

1. I receive better discounts from other companies than the ones I have as a vendor here. Why is that?

2. How can I engage in selling your product, do you have any guidances step by step?

Thanks

Wanted: Filtering for new apps + the Review function

Mats Linder — Thu, 18 Jul 2024 11:13:08 GMT

It used to be possible to filter the plugins for, e.g., Last updated, Most recent, Top rated. For a long time now, nothing like this has been possible. Currently the user has no idea at all as to the order in which the plugins are listed (except of course if one filters according to the categories which are offered under the Search plugin field). I think it would be very useful to be able to see both which are totally new and which have been updated. I have been asking for this for a very long time and remember being told that it would happen. But when?

Also I sorely miss the review function, not only because my manual had received a number of very positive reviews, but mainly because many of the questions which people used to post there were very useful. I realise that the RWS AppStore forum offers much the same service -- but in a much more roundabout way. I would welcome back the reviews that got lost during the reorganisation of the AppStore functionality; I hope they are not irretrievably gone.

Desktop Studio 2024: which Language Weaver provider to add as a TM.

Emma Goldsmith — Mon, 01 Jul 2024 08:19:50 GMT

Hello!
In Studio 2024 (which comes with Language Weaver app pre-installed), I'm adding Language Weaver as a TM in my project.
I'm offered a choice of Language Weaver Cloud and Language Weaver Edge. I don't know which to choose. The window gives a short description of the two, but I'd like to learn more about the differences. LW Edge sounds more secure if it's in a private environment, but it doesn't mention "adaptive". Does that mean it won't use my termbases and the Cloud will? How exactly do they differ?
I can't find any more details about this in the help files.
Thank you!

Unable to use new AI capabilities

Rene Morin — Sun, 30 Jun 2024 16:40:19 GMT

Hi all! So I upgraded to 2024 and was all excited with the idea of using the new AI capabilities. I opened an OpenAI acount, but when I try entering my API key in OpenAI Provider for Trados, I'm always getting a "Connection Failed" message with error code "-2146233088". That's as far as I could get. Any help fixing this would be much appreciated.

Cheers,

How perform Smart Review in 2024?

Former Member — Thu, 27 Jun 2024 15:01:13 GMT

Hello,

we can read here: https://docs.rws.com/1145319/1152571/trados-studio-2024/trados-copilot---smart-review

that "As a reminder, Smart Review is available for all product offerings for an associated fee.".

The questions are:

1. how much does it cost?
2. how to pay?
3. who to pay?
4. where can I find more information about this?

Or does it just refer to the additional costs associated with Azure? In any case, the documentation is quite laconic. I don't know how to configure it to make it work.

When I click the button "Evaluate segment" there's message "You do not have the necessary permissions to perform a Smart Review."

How to make this thing working?

One more thing, there's: "Smart Review gathers data from your linguistic resources that can be used to construct a prompt for the AI: a persona, the terminology preferred, similar translated documents or extractions from the translation memory using preferred style or tone, the instructions of what your goal is and the current translation."

What is "linguistic resources" (in Trados' settings, f.e in TM, there's language resources not linguistic resources) and where/how to setup these resources to be sent to LLM?

BTW: MTQE is not available when working offline only, is that correct?

Regards,

Rafal

Create Your Own Plugin

du hh — Thu, 20 Jun 2024 06:04:54 GMT

Hello,
I hope I'm not intruding, but I'm looking to create my own plugin for use in Trados for localization translation. I've checked the appstore but couldn't find the place to operate or submit my plugin. Could you please guide me on how to proceed? It would be great if you could provide illustrations if possible. Thank you very much.
