Content rarely starts or ends in a translation platform. It comes from repositories, content systems, databases, forms, spreadsheets and internal apps, and once translated it needs to go somewhere else.
Use n8n to trigger and orchestrate the process. Use TextUnited to handle the translation. Then move the result to whatever comes next, automatically.
Send text to TextUnited, choose source and target languages, and pass translated content straight to the next step, no translation project needed.
Best for: dynamic content, product data, support content, forms and system-to-system workflows.
Receive files from another system, prepare them, start machine translation, track progress and pick up the translated files when they’re ready.
Best for: documents, recurring file translation, portals and automated document workflows.
Turn incoming text or files into structured TextUnited projects. Pick an in-house or managed workflow, depending on how your translation process is organized.
Best for: documentation, localization operations, recurring content batches and work that needs people involved.
See whether a process is running, completed or failed, and let n8n logic decide what happens next.
Retry failed processes, stop one when needed, or continue the workflow as soon as translation is done.
How it works
Trigger your workflow from a webhook, app, repository, database, spreadsheet, schedule or another n8n integration.
Choose what you need: translate instantly, process a file, or create a translation project.
TextUnited translates while n8n orchestrates everything around it. For longer jobs, n8n checks back until the translation is ready.
Publish, save, return to another app, notify your team, or kick off the next workflow.

Choose the workflow that fits the content you’re translating.
Translate text immediately, without creating a translation project.
For files, start machine translation in the background and pick up the translated files when processing is done.
{{ $json.description }}translated text per languageNext node File translation
A user or app uploads a file. n8n sends it to TextUnited, starts translation, checks the process until it’s complete, and returns the translated file on its own.
IdlePress Execute workflow to watch the file move through each node.No manual downloading, uploading, status checking, or moving files between systems.
Built for localization
You could connect a general-purpose AI model to n8n and ask it to translate. But production translation workflows often need more than a prompt.
TextUnited gives you a dedicated translation layer that sits inside your automation.
Send content from one source language into several target languages in the same workflow.
Apply the right domain for instant text translation, so the translation gets the right context.
Create projects that use your own translation teams and resources.
Send projects through a managed process when you don’t want to handle translator allocation yourself.
Include proofreading in supported in-house project workflows when a person needs to check the work.
Track asynchronous processes and build n8n logic around running, completed or failed states.
Clear roles
Together, they turn translation from a separate manual task into part of a larger automated business process.
Connect your stack
Your workflow doesn’t need to begin or end in TextUnited. Build automations like these:
Translate repository content and return it to your development workflow.
Send new or updated content for translation and return localized versions to your publishing workflow.
Turn structured rows of content into translation projects automatically.
Receive a document, translate it, and return the result automatically.
Monitor translation processes and tell your team when work is done or needs attention.
Build your own workflow around APIs, webhooks, databases and internal apps.

FAQs
The TextUnited community node connects TextUnited’s translation platform with n8n workflows. It lets you add text translation, file translation, translation projects and translation process management to larger automated workflows.
Yes. Instant Translation translates text without creating a TextUnited project. Choose the source language, one or more target languages, and a domain, then pass the translated content to the next n8n step.
Yes. n8n can send prepared files to TextUnited for machine translation, monitor the translation process, and retrieve the translated files when processing is complete.
Yes. The TextUnited n8n node supports creating text-based and file-based translation projects, including in-house and managed workflows.
Yes. Supported operations let you translate one source language into multiple target languages.
Yes. n8n can retrieve the state of supported TextUnited processes. Your workflow can wait while translation is running, continue when it’s complete, or handle a failed process.
Not for operations already available in the TextUnited community node. You configure those directly in the n8n workflow editor.
Install @textunited/n8n-nodes-textunited under Settings › Community Nodes › Install in n8n, then connect it to your TextUnited account with a Personal Access Token.
