About this app
Phrase for Support is a translation app that helps support agents translate multilingual Zendesk Support tickets using Phrase Machine Translation.
Translate Zendesk tickets using Phrase without leaving Support
Phrase for Support allows agents to translate end user and internal ticket comments using Phrase Machine Translation directly inside Zendesk Support.
Translations are triggered manually by agents, giving full control over when and what content is translated.

Understanding long multilingual ticket threads
Responding accurately to global customers without leaving Zendesk
Key capabilities

Built for real world support workflows
The app is designed to handle tickets with long comment histories and large volumes of text.
Before sending content to Phrase, the app removes invisible Unicode characters, excessive whitespace, repeated characters, malformed HTML, and other noise that can negatively affect translation quality or cause API errors.
Temporary data such as logs and cached translations are stored in the browser local storage and can be cleared from the app settings when needed.
Security and data handling

Does not call the Zendesk API from outside Zendesk
Sends only selected ticket text to Phrase for translation
