XLF Version 2.1.
I have subscribed to the Advance version of DeepL as a translating tool. DeepL requires an XLF 2.1. version for translation but Rise 360 only export in version 1.2.
Has anyone been able to solve the problem when exporting for translation?
Can Articulate update Rise export XLF files for translation to a 2.1. version?
Thanks
How to change your versioning to translate your XLIFF doc for Rise. This is the process I use and it work.
- Log in to your Rise account using your credentials.
- Search the Rise module that needs to be translated.
- Click on the tree dot in the top right corner of the module.
- Select “Duplicate” and create a copy of the module.
- Access the copied module by clicking on it.
- Click on setting on the top bar
- On the Translation tab, click on “Export XLIFF File” button
- An XLIFF life has been downloaded in “Your Download”
- Open your XLIFF using Notepad++ (Right click on it and choose “Open with”)
- Click on the text on the top of the screen. The firs section will turn yellow, and, in that section, you will need to replace the versioning 1.2 by 2.1 (3 different place as shown in the picture bellow)
- Click on save (third image .. hard drive) You now have an XLIFF version 2.1
- Access your translation engine (DeepL, etc) and download the XLIFF doc for translation
- Once the document is translated, download it back into “Your download”
- The translated document will end with “fr-ca.xlf”
- You need to repeat the same process as #8 and change it back from 2.1 version to 1.2 at the same tree places using Notepad++.
- Click on save (third image .. hard drive) You now have an XLIFF version 1.2
- Access back your copy of the Rise module that you have exported the XLIFF doc and click on “Import Translated text” and select your document that finishes with “fr-ca.xlf”.
- Update the label to “French”
- Close this window by clicking on the “Close” button on the top right corner.
- The module is translated and ready for French QA
It is utterly unacceptable that Rise and Storyline can't output to XLIFF 2.1 for two reasons:
- It's almost 2024 and XLIFF was released in February of 2008; XLIFF 2.1 was released February 2018 - almost 6 years ago.
- XLIFF 1.2 is no longer maintained by the OASIS Technical Committee.
Please be sure to prioritise this update to Articulate software.
Likely allowing for XLIFF 2.1 output is NOT a priority for Articulate - 100% sure they are working on an integrated solution instead (at an extra cost, of course). In this scenario you create a course in your main language, let's say English for this instance, then the user would be able to select a "Translate Course" button with a language drop down menu.
Hi Everyone :)
Following this thread because this issue causes an incredible amount of extra work/hours. I'd be so grateful if this could be solved so we can use Rise and DeepL.
Fingers crossed for your engineering team's efforts!

Same here. Support for XLIFF 2.1 would make working with Articualte so much more efficient for us. We often translate into 12 languages.
Same here! We also translate into multiple languages almost in all of our projects. This could be a great improvement to get XLIFF 2.1.
Wanted to pitch in. We really need Articulate to support 2.1 XLIFF. This is the feature that we need the most right now
Please we need Rise to support XLIFF 2.1 !!!!
Hello SL staff,
We'd like to have Storyline and Rise xliff formats updated too. We are currently manually translating our home-made courses and it takes forever.
Accessing to IA translation via DeepL or similar is a must nowadays !
Please take this one level higher on your priority list 👍
Cheers for your great apps !!
We also urgently need the support of XLIFF 2.1. When can this be expected?
Commenting to join the others in showing that there is demand for updating Rise to support XLIFF 2.1. This should be escalated in the roadmap considering how old 1.2 is.
Bump for this feature!!
I also want to emphasize that we urgently need Rise and Storyline courses to be exported into XLFF files on the version 2.1 to be processed by deepl.
Hello,
Please bump this on the feature request roadmap.
We are in the middle of globalization and specific countries have translation requirements. All training assets and then some.
Thank you,Erin
