Activate or deactivate context

Activate or deactivate a context

Once you have created a context, you can decide when it should apply to a translation. You can activate a context, deactivate it, or combine several at once.

When you are in a translation, select Add context to open the right-side context drawer. This drawer shows all context you can use—your own and any that have been shared with your workspace.

Inside the drawer, you can:

  • browse the list of available context

  • search context by name

  • view context details, and even manage context (if you are the context creator or have the appropriate role)

  • activate or deactivate context using the toggle next to each item

For text translation, any activation/deactivation of context in the drawer takes effect immediately on the translation. See the quality improve in real time!

For file translation, context must be activated before you select Translate. If you add or remove context afterward, Lia Go will not reapply it automatically.

The three-dot menu

Each context in the drawer has a three-dot menu offering actions based on your permissions:

  • View details — available for contexts you may view but not edit

  • Edit — available for context you created, or if you are an admin/owner

  • Delete — available for context you created, or if you are an admin/owner

For context created by others, you can only view details unless you have the appropriate workspace role.

See Manage and share context for more details.
