Overview

With the Callback Authentication, users can sync their preferred content management system (CMS) to Lingotek’s translation management system (TMS) securely, providing a user interface in their CMS. This way, users can use some features of the TMS in a CMS of their choice, with an added layer of security feature, using Lingotek's TMS in your own server or environment is now more secure. The added layer of security to Lingotek’s authentication process is applicable to common content management systems (CMS), such as Drupal, WordPress, Magento, and more.
