How it runs

The automated pipeline, trigger to output.

  • TriggerScheduled scan for tasks needing a draft
  • ActionList Asana localization tasks tagged needs-draftAsanaAsana
  • ActionGenerate per-locale draft translation with OpenAIOpenAI
  • ActionSave draft as the locale working file in DriveGoogle DriveGoogle Drive
  • OutputUpdate Asana task and flip tag to ready-for-reviewAsanaAsana

What it does

Gives every open locale task a head start. It scans for translation tasks still missing a draft, produces a first-pass translation in the target language using the source copy and a glossary, and saves the draft to the task and to Drive for the assigned reviewer.

When to use it

Use it when you want translators editing and verifying rather than translating from scratch, and you accept machine drafts as a starting point under human review. Good for high-volume, lower-risk copy.

How it works

  1. 1A scheduled run lists Asana localization tasks tagged needs-draft.
  2. 2For each task, an OpenAI action translates the source copy into the task's target locale, honoring a passed-in glossary and tone note.
  3. 3A Google Drive action saves the draft as the locale's working file in the request folder.
  4. 4An Asana action updates the task, links the draft, and flips the tag to ready-for-review.

Set it up

What you configure once, before turning it on.

  1. 1
    Connect AsanaTasks, projects, milestones — everywhere.
  2. 2
    Connect OpenAIModels, embeddings, files.
  3. 3
    Connect Google DriveDocs, sheets, slides, files.
  4. 4
    Set each agent's modelWe leave models unset so you pick the tier — fast + cheap, or top-quality.
  5. 5
    Tune it to your dataEdit the prompts, filters, and field mappings so it matches how your team works.
  6. 6
    Test, then turn it onRun once against a sample, confirm the output, then enable the trigger.
