Translation API features

When you want to translate an e-Learning module immediately, the Translation API can do this instantly in more than 100 languages. The main difference with AutoML Translation is that the Translation API doesn’t take into account the domain specific custom terms.

How does it improve the FLOWSPARKS experience?

The Google Cloud Translate API delivers real-time translations which speeds up the training for the participant because they get the content in their language within seconds.
For the author this will give quicker and more accurate results. It also adds a level of control because you can add translation on the go. How about achieving localization in a click? Implementing localization in your learning modules helps you reach across global masses. This will make managing teams of employees much easier and will enable them to collaborate smoothly even if they are geographically dispersed and drawn from a range of nationalities.

Other features

User-friendly

The integration of Google Cloud Translation API ensures an easy and pleasant translation experience. Once the service is connected to your FLOWSPARKS portal you can assign the option to a selection of authors and using it is simple and easy.

Live language conversion

As a participant you benefit from multiple available languages. At any point during the online training, a participant can also switch the language of the course without losing progress (depending on the available translations done by the author).
