Lokalise Vantage: Tasks

Learn how tasks work in Lokalise Vantage, including how review tasks are created, how to manage them, assign contributors, and review translations.

Written by Ilya Krukowski

This article covers only Lokalise Vantage tasks. To learn about tasks in Lokalise Expert, please refer to the Tasks article.

This article explains how tasks work in Lokalise Vantage and how to view and manage them within a project.

Tasks are mainly used to organise review work. When a project uses the AI + human review workflow, Vantage automatically creates review tasks so contributors can review and approve translations.

Where to find tasks

Tasks are available on the Tasks page inside a Vantage project. To open it:

  1. Open your Vantage project.

  2. Select the Tasks tab in the project navigation.

The Tasks page displays all tasks created for the project.


How tasks are created

Tasks are created automatically when a project is configured with the AI + human review workflow.

During project setup, you assign reviewers for each target language. Once translation begins, Vantage automatically generates review tasks for those languages. Each language is tracked separately within the task, so different languages can have different reviewers and progress levels.

Assigned reviewers receive an email notification with a direct link to the project, so they can quickly open the editor and start reviewing their segments.

If you add a new target language later (via the project editor), Vantage automatically creates a separate review task for that language.

Tasks can also be created from Portal requests when the AI + human review option is selected.


Tasks management

What information the Tasks page shows

The Tasks page displays a table with the following information:

  • Task title — the name of the task (automatically includes a prefix that represents the task type; for instance, "RE" stands for "review")

  • Task type — for example, Human review

  • Task status — whether the task has started or is still pending

  • Base words — the number of words included in the task

  • Assignees — the contributors responsible for the task

  • Due date — optional deadline

  • Created — the date the task was created

Tasks may contain multiple languages. Each language entry shows its own progress and assigned reviewer.

Editing task settings

You can modify task settings directly from the Tasks page.

Click the More icon next to the task and select Edit task to adjust the following parameters:

  • task title

  • due date

  • assignees

Assignees can only be selected from users who already have access to the project. In other words, reviewers must first be added as project contributors before they can be assigned to tasks.

If the person you want to assign is not listed, add them to the project from the Contributors page.

Opening task segments in the editor

To work on the segments included in a task, select Open in editor from the More dropdown.

This opens the project editor with the relevant segments automatically filtered. Only the segments included in the task are displayed, allowing reviewers to focus on the content assigned to them.

From there, reviewers can edit translations, rephrase text, and approve segments as needed.
