Showing errors

Hover over the highlighted parts to check the details of the error. Click Ignore this error if you do not want this to be highlighted anymore.
With some special warnings like spell checking (module “d1g”), you will receive tooltip replace suggestions.
Check statistics
Open the Auto QA by lexiqa on the side panel, switch to the Statistics tab.
In the Statistics tab, you can check the language pair, last updated, and total errors in each language pair. Please note that the statistics will be shown for each language pair, so you can run Auto QA by lexiqa in each language pair or run it all at once.
Re-run Auto QA by lexiqa
If you have added new records after you run Auto QA by lexiqa, you need to run Auto QA by lexiqa again to apply the check to new records. Open Auto QA by lexiqa from the side panel in the Grid, and click the button Run Auto QA by lexiqa.
Note
The re-run does not apply on existing records if you do not make any changes in the source data. Gridly will only count the newly added (and amended) records and charge fees against those.
