          Note:

          

- If the file is uploaded successfully, you receive a success email.
- If the file fails to upload, a failure report is sent to you through email, and a confirmation pop-up appears on the Dashboard with details about content that could not be translated. ![DB_Translation_Confirmation](https://cdn.document360.io/a268766e-d74d-4619-9613-e2472f809ffb/Images/Documentation/DB_Translation_Confirmation.png)
- Translations can only be updated for content in the Draft and Ready stages.
- The language file must be compressed into a zip file to be uploaded to the Dashboard.
