IBM Watson Language Translator

Use IBM Watson® Language Translator to translate values in text fields to other languages.

Important: If you are using IBM Watson Language Translator in OpenPages® version 9.0.0.2 or later, consider switching to NeuralSeek as your language translation service because the IBM Watson Language Translator service has been deprecated.

The icons and functionality for the IBM Watson Language Translator are different depending on whether the access point is for users or administrators.
