Introduction

The TranslationOS plugin for Figma makes it easy to entrust Translated with the professional or automated translation of your frames, saving you the hassle of importing and exporting content or switching between tools.

The TranslationOS plugin for Figma is available for both the desktop and web apps on Figma Community.

This connector is event-based, meaning it is triggered by specific actions. To learn which actions trigger the connector, see the section Requesting translations.

Setting up the plugin

TranslationOS SSO

Before you can use the TranslationOS plugin for Figma, we need to ensure that it has been enabled for your TranslationOS account and that you have been granted the necessary permissions.

If your SAML-based identity provider (IdP) has been integrated with TranslationOS SSO, we can configure permissions for each individual user. Alternatively, if you use your customer ID to log in, we can set up permissions for your customer ID only.

It is also possible to configure both. This is useful if most users require the same permissions, while only a few need specific configurations. In that case, you can rely on the customer ID for most users, and specific permissions can be granted to the SSO accounts of the remaining users.

Each user can be granted permission to place orders and/or import orders.
