Note: When you publish the article, Pega Knowledge creates cloned draft versions of the original article that can be translated into the selected languages. The draft articles are routed to the Knowledge Content - Translations work basket, where an author can translate it to the specified language or export it to a CSV file to send to a vendor for translation. For more information, see Multi-language management.
