Translating content

After having successfully trained your model, you can translate content by using the Cloud Translation - Advanced API translateText method. The Cloud Translation - Advanced API supports glossaries and Batch translation requests .

REST

Before using any of the request data, make the following replacements:

  • PROJECT_ID : Your Google Cloud project ID.
  • LOCATION : The region where the custom model is located, such as us-central1 .

HTTP method and URL:

POST https://translation.googleapis.com/v3/projects/ PROJECT_ID 
/locations/ LOCATION 
:translateText

Request JSON body:

{
  "model": "projects/ PROJECT_ID 
/locations/ LOCATION 
/models/1395675701985363739",
  "sourceLanguageCode": "en",
  "targetLanguageCode": "ru",
  "contents": ["Dr. Watson, please discard your trash. You've shared unsolicited email with me.
  Let's talk about spam and importance ranking in a confidential mode."]
}

To send your request, choose one of these options:

curl

Save the request body in a file named request.json , and execute the following command:

curl -X POST \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $(gcloud auth print-access-token)" \
-H "x-goog-user-project: PROJECT_ID " \
-H "Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8" \
-d @request.json \
"https://translation.googleapis.com/v3/projects/ PROJECT_ID /locations/ LOCATION :translateText"

PowerShell

Save the request body in a file named request.json , and execute the following command:

$cred = gcloud auth print-access-token
$headers = @{ "Authorization" = "Bearer $cred"; "x-goog-user-project" = " PROJECT_ID " }

Invoke-WebRequest `
-Method POST `
-Headers $headers `
-ContentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8" `
-InFile request.json `
-Uri "https://translation.googleapis.com/v3/projects/ PROJECT_ID /locations/ LOCATION :translateText" | Select-Object -Expand Content

You should receive a JSON response similar to the following:

{
  "translation": {
    "translatedText": "Доктор Ватсон, пожалуйста, откажитесь от своего мусора.
    Вы поделились нежелательной электронной почтой со мной. Давайте поговорим о
    спаме и важности рейтинга в конфиденциальном режиме.",
    "model": "projects/ PROJECT_NUMBER 
/locations/ LOCATION 
/models/1395675701985363739"
  }
}
