MemoQ

memoQ offers flexible translation and localization management solutions tailored to enterprises, language service providers, and translators. This memoQ application primarily centers around project and file management.

Before setting up

Before you can connect you need to make sure that:

• You have access to a memoQ instance.
• Your memoQ instance has the API enabled and you have an API key.
• If your memoQ instance requires whitelisting then ask us about our Blackbird sandbox IP addresses.

Connecting

1. Navigate to apps and search for memoQ . If you cannot find memoQ then click Add App in the top right corner, select memoQ and add the app to your Blackbird environment.
2. Click Add Connection.
3. Name your connection for future reference e.g. ‘My memoQ’.
4. Add the URL pointing to your memoQ instance API. Usually this is your instance URL, port with the added /memoqservices but this can be different (see image below).
5. Add your API key.
6. Click Connect.
7. Confirm that the connection has appeared and the status is Connected.
