Add optional instructions appended to the workflow's base prompt. Use these instructions to adjust the style, tone, or other aspects unique to your project.
+### Target languages
+
+The translations workflow translates source content into the target languages you select. When you first enable the workflow, Mintlify pre-populates the target languages from the non-default languages defined in your [`docs.json` navigation](/organize/navigation#languages). You can change the selection at any time from the workflow's settings.
+
+- The workflow uses the `default` language from your `docs.json` navigation as the source language. If no default is set, Mintlify falls back to the first listed language, then to English.
+- You can only select languages supported by Mintlify's translation models. Unsupported or duplicate entries are ignored.
+- The source language cannot be a target language.
+- You must select at least one target language. The workflow will not run until at least one valid target language is configured.
+
+
+ If your project has no non-default languages configured in `docs.json`, you must choose target languages in the workflow settings before enabling the translations workflow.
