How to Use ClickUp AI Agents for Dutch Translation
ClickUp AI Agents make it easy to translate content to Dutch and keep your team aligned across languages without leaving ClickUp. This guide shows you step-by-step how to configure, use, and optimize AI Agents so they can translate tasks, Docs, and conversations into Dutch in a controlled and repeatable way.
What are ClickUp AI Agents?
AI Agents in ClickUp are configurable, role-based assistants that can perform specialized work inside your workspace. Instead of generic AI replies, you design an Agent that follows your instructions, understands your processes, and uses workspace context while staying within the permissions you define.
For Dutch translation, you can create a dedicated Agent that focuses on converting text to Dutch, matching your brand voice and terminology, and keeping translated content organized inside your spaces and folders.
Plan your Dutch translation workflow in ClickUp
Before creating a translation Agent, decide how Dutch content will flow through your ClickUp workspace. This planning step ensures the AI Agent fits your existing process instead of creating chaos.
Define your translation goals in ClickUp
- Decide what needs translation: tasks, comments, Docs, chat messages, or forms.
- Clarify direction: translate from English to Dutch only, or both ways.
- Decide tone: formal Dutch, informal Dutch, or brand-specific style.
- Identify reviewers: who validates and approves the AI output.
Choose where translations live in ClickUp
Decide how translated items will be stored and tracked so everything stays easy to find:
- Create a dedicated List for Dutch translations.
- Use custom fields to tag “Source language” and “Translated language”.
- Create statuses such as To Translate, In Review, Approved NL.
- Use Docs for long-form Dutch content like guides and policies.
Create a Dutch translation AI Agent in ClickUp
Once your workflow is planned, you can build a focused AI Agent that handles Dutch translation consistently.
Step 1: Open the AI Agents settings
- Sign in to your ClickUp workspace.
- Open the AI panel or workspace settings, depending on your plan and layout.
- Navigate to the AI Agents section where you can manage and create Agents.
Step 2: Add a new ClickUp AI Agent
- Select the option to create a new AI Agent.
- Give the Agent a clear name, for example: Dutch Translation Specialist.
- Optionally upload an avatar so teammates can quickly recognize the translation Agent in ClickUp Interfaces, tasks, and Docs.
Step 3: Define the Agent’s role and responsibilities
Describe the Agent’s job in natural language so it behaves like a real translation teammate:
- State that the Agent’s primary role is translating content into Dutch.
- Explain that it must preserve meaning, intent, and formatting.
- Specify tone, formality, and any terminology rules.
- Clarify when the Agent should ask for clarification instead of guessing.
Example instructions you might give inside ClickUp when configuring the Agent:
- “You are a professional Dutch translator for marketing and product content.”
- “Translate everything into Dutch unless I explicitly say otherwise.”
- “Use clear, natural Dutch and avoid literal word-for-word translations.”
- “Keep headings, bullet lists, and links intact.”
Step 4: Add knowledge and context
AI Agents in ClickUp can leverage workspace context and custom knowledge so translations stay accurate and consistent:
- Connect relevant folders, Lists, and Docs that contain your product, brand, and glossary information.
- Add Dutch style guides or terminology lists as reference documents.
- Link previous approved Dutch translations so the Agent can mimic tone.
With this context, the translation Agent understands how your organization names features, addresses customers, and formats Dutch content.
Control permissions for your ClickUp AI Agent
AI Agents follow the same permission model as other items in ClickUp, which helps keep sensitive information protected while still making translation accessible.
Set workspace and item-level access
- Limit the spaces and folders the Agent can access if you only want it to see specific projects.
- Give read-only access where the Agent should only translate but not modify items.
- Grant edit permissions in Lists where the Agent can create or update translated tasks and Docs.
Choose who can use the translation Agent
Decide which teammates can invoke this Agent inside ClickUp:
- Allow all workspace members to use the Dutch translation Agent.
- Restrict usage to specific teams, such as Localization or Support.
- Use roles to manage who can edit the Agent’s configuration versus who can just run it.
Use your Dutch translation Agent in ClickUp
After configuration, you can start using the AI Agent directly in tasks, Docs, and other areas of ClickUp to translate content to Dutch.
Translate tasks and comments
- Open a task that contains text to translate.
- Highlight the text or open the AI panel.
- Select your Dutch translation Agent from the list of available Agents.
- Ask it to translate the selected content into Dutch.
- Insert the translated text into the task description, a comment, or a custom field.
You can repeat this process to translate status updates, customer notes, or feedback threads inside ClickUp.
Translate Docs and knowledge content
- Open a Doc that should be available in Dutch.
- Use the AI menu or contextual tools to invoke your translation Agent.
- Request a full-page translation or only translate selected sections.
- Review the Dutch version and save it as a new Doc or section.
This keeps your knowledge base multilingual, while all versions remain organized inside your ClickUp hierarchy.
Use the Agent inside ClickUp chat and collaboration
When working in chat views or collaborative Docs, you can quickly translate short messages and instructions so Dutch-speaking teammates stay in the loop:
- Ask the Agent to summarize and translate long English threads into Dutch.
- Translate quick replies to Dutch before sending them to customers or partners.
- Clarify domain-specific phrases using the Agent’s knowledge of your workspace content.
Automate Dutch translation with ClickUp workflows
To reduce manual steps, you can integrate your AI Agent into automated workflows so translation happens as part of your process.
Trigger translations with task changes
Use ClickUp automation capabilities together with your AI Agent:
- When a task moves to To Translate, automatically call the Agent to generate a Dutch version of the description.
- When a custom field “Needs Dutch” is set to Yes, create a new subtask with the translated content.
- When a Doc is updated, notify the Agent to refresh the Dutch version and tag reviewers.
These automations ensure that Dutch content stays up to date whenever the original source changes.
Route approvals and reviews
Pair your ClickUp AI Agent with human review steps:
- Automatically assign a translator or reviewer when a Dutch translation is created.
- Use statuses to track Draft NL, In Review NL, and Published NL.
- Use comments and @mentions to provide feedback that the Agent can learn from when you adjust its configuration.
Best practices for Dutch translations in ClickUp
To get reliable results from your AI Agent and maintain quality across Dutch content, follow these practices.
Write clear prompts for your ClickUp AI Agent
- Specify the target audience (customers, internal staff, executives).
- Indicate whether you want a literal translation or localized phrasing.
- Mention if the text is for marketing, support, legal, or product use.
- Ask for multiple options if you are unsure of the best Dutch wording.
Maintain consistent terminology
- Centralize Dutch glossary terms in a Doc accessed by the Agent.
- Store examples of approved Dutch copy inside a dedicated List or folder.
- Update the Agent’s instructions whenever terminology changes so translations stay aligned.
Review and refine your Agent over time
- Periodically inspect translated items to catch recurring issues.
- Adjust the Agent’s role description and examples to correct mistakes.
- Limit or expand its access in ClickUp as your translation program grows.
