## How to install the Translations Contributor app

The Translations Contributor is installed like any other NIZU Cloud app.

### Installation steps

1. Go to **Settings**.
2. Open **Apps**.
3. Search for **Translations Contributor**.
4. Click **Install**.
5. Click **Activate**.

Activation automatically creates the app's staging table in your workspace database. No manual database changes are required.

### After activation

A **Translations Contributor** entry appears in the left menu for staff who have permission to use it. If you do not see it, grant the permission as described below.

### Granting access

1. Go to **Settings** → **Team & roles** (Staff roles).
2. Edit the role you want to give access to.
3. Under **Translations Contributor**, enable:
  - **Translate** browse languages and save drafts.
  - **Approve translations for publishing** approve staged drafts (managers only).
4. Save the role.

Administrators always have full access without any extra configuration.

### Note

This is an internal, development-oriented app intended for the workspace where translations are prepared. It does not need to be installed in every customer workspace.
