Editing your translation file

You download your translation file from your template when building a multi-language template or campaign.

Translation file structure 

Column A in your translation file (language) is a mandatory column which lists the language variations selected for your template:

As well as your template blocks with translation tags, the file contains the following headings:

• asset_library_folder_path - see How to add images to the translation file
• subject_line
• preheader

How to add images to the translation file

To map images to asset manager folders, you'll need to enter the asset manager folder path into the asset_library_folder_path column. 

In Ometria, go to Campaigns > Asset manager and select the folder you've uploaded your images to.

Click on file path dropdown and select Copy path link:

Go back to your translation file and paste the path link into the asset_library_folder_path column in the correct language row:

Ometria will check this folder for the right translation when processing your translation file. 

Templates without translation images

You might not have any images with text in your campaign, meaning you don't need to update different translations for your images.

You can remove the asset_library_folder_path from the file if you don't plan to use it.

Be aware that if you don't upload any image folder paths, you'll see a "Content missing" warning after the translation file has been processed. You can still save and publish the template without any problems.
