## How does the integration work?

Smartcat’s Integration Agent uses the Jira plugin to fetch documents attached to Jira tickets that meet your specified criteria and imports them directly into your Smartcat workspace.

Once synced, [Smartcat AI Agent](https://www.smartcat.com/blog/what-are-ai-agents/) translates the content using your [glossaries](https://www.smartcat.com/blog/making-the-perfect-glossary/) and memories. You can customize the flow—add reviewers, assign linguists, and manage the process in real time.

When the translation is complete, Smartcat automatically pushes the translated files back into the original Jira tickets. You get an efficient, automated localization workflow embedded in your project management environment.

“I find Smartcat easy to use and it helps me find the resources I need. The initial setup was also easy… it helps translate when no native speaker is available.”
