TextTranslationClient Class
Text translation is a cloud-based REST API feature of the Translator service that uses neural machine translation technology to enable quick and accurate source-to-target text translation in real time across all supported languages.
The following methods are supported by the Text Translation feature:
Languages. Returns a list of languages supported by Translate, Transliterate, and Dictionary Lookup operations.
Translate. Renders single source-language text to multiple target-language texts with a single request.
Transliterate. Converts characters or letters of a source language to the corresponding characters or letters of a target language.
Detect. Returns the source code language code and a boolean variable denoting whether the detected language is supported for text translation and transliteration.
Dictionary lookup. Returns equivalent words for the source term in the target language.
Dictionary example Returns grammatical structure and context examples for the source term and target term pair.
Combinations of endpoint and credential values: str + AzureKeyCredential - used custom domain translator endpoint str + AzureKeyCredential + Region - used for global translator endpoint str + TokenCredential - used for regional endpoint with token authentication str + None - used with text translation on-prem container None + AzureKeyCredential - used for global translator endpoint with global Translator resource None + TokenCredential - general translator endpoint with token authentication None + TokenCredential + Region - general translator endpoint with regional Translator resource
