Is there a way to generate a report of objects included in a translation project?

Peter Stromback

Hello,

Is there a way to generate a report of objects included in a translation project?

The use case is that I want to generate a list of all objects included in Translation project X created on a a specific date.

This would be helpful to have as a column in the Inbox, so I can see what objects in status InTranslation belongs to a certain project. 

Is it possible to add this in the Inbox definitions?

Thanks!

BR

Peter

  • Hi Peter,

    The short answer is that TranslationJobs (just like Publications or even Folders) are on top of the Content Objects (like topics, maps, images, etc). Inboxes are only about Content Objects and not about their grouping containers. So there is no possibility to configure this through Inbox Definitions. Actually the future of Inboxes is under discussion, if this still a worthwhile concept to continue with in its current form.

    For the tech-savvy people, there is a backlog entry for Windows PowerShell automation library ISHRemote on opening up the read functions of the WCF-SOAP API of the Tridion Docs CMS. See Add read cmdlets *-IshTranslationJob and *-IshTranslationJobItem · Issue #69 · sdl/ISHRemote Unfortunately it never made it to the top of my list :-)

    In essence these cmdlets would allow listing (and further processing, like cross-checking, CSV export, etc) what is inside a TranslationJob container.

    Best wishes,
    Dave
