DTS will not support Dynamics NAV after June 1, 2024
Mainstream support for Dynamics NAV 2018 ended on Jan 10, 2023. DTS ends support for Dynamics NAV 2018 and prior versions by June 1, 2024.
Dynamics 365 Translation Service Connector release
The Dynamics 365 Translation Service Connector is now available. Because this connector integrates with Microsoft Power Platform, you can access DTS directly from a flow or app. The connector calls the DTS API on the user's behalf, saving them a trip to the website.
The following functionality is supported:
- Translate user interface (UI) files.
- Regenerate translation requests.
- Create translation memory (TM) files.
To learn more, see Dynamics Translation Service.
DTS API release
The DTS API is now available for DTS users. With the API, customers can perform Translation, Alignment, and Regeneration actions without the need to visit Lifecycle Services. This release allows developers to create custom translation solutions, using the capabilities of DTS. For more information, see Dynamics 365 Translation Service API.
Incident update: DTS API failures impacting extension users
The Lifecycle Services team has identified the root cause of the problem. The necessary fixes will be rolled out in the next release, and we anticipate that the DTS API will be fully functional by April 15, 2023.
We understand the inconvenience that this issue has caused, and appreciate your patience and continuous support for the DTS.
If you require immediate support, contact the support team at dtssup@microsoft.com.
