Translation managers, localisation leads and content teams often run Smartling across many files, languages and reviewers. A translation job being completed or a file being published is a useful point for a short operational alert. Smartling can start a Zap from those events, and Mobile Message can send an SMS to the person who needs to review the result or release the translated content.

Smartling also provides events for a translation job being created, cancelled or updated, plus source and translation issue activity. Choose the event that matches your process, then use Mobile Message to send an individual text, notify a list or create a contact. A completed job could prompt a review, while File Published could tell a regional manager that content is ready. The message remains plain text and can include the project, file or locale information supplied by the trigger.

The connection runs through Zapier, so Smartling continues to manage translation work and issue tracking while Mobile Message handles the notification. You can build separate Zaps for completed jobs, published files and urgent issue activity, with wording suited to each audience. Mapping the relevant mobile number and status fields gives your team a practical alert without requiring someone to watch Smartling for every change.
