Which APIs Can I Use to Translate My Website?
To enhance the multilingual capabilities of your PrestaShop store, the Free Translate & AI Content module provides an efficient solution. This module allows you to translate your store into over 110 languages using various translation APIs. In this guide, we will introduce the supported translation APIs and explain how to obtain the necessary API keys to get started.
Supported Translation APIs
Our module integrates with the most popular translation APIs, ensuring that your store receives the highest quality translations. The APIs we support include:
- Google API
- DeepL API
- Bing API
- Libre API
- Lecto API
- Yandex API
Some of these providers offer free plans (e.g., Bing/Azure Translator, Google Translate API, DeepL API), which include a limited number of characters for translation each month. It is essential to research these providers thoroughly. If your website does not have too much content needed to translate every month, you might consider using the free plans or exploring the paid plans that best suit your needs.
How to Get API Keys
To use these translation APIs, you will need to obtain API keys. Our module provides direct links to detailed instructions for acquiring API keys for each translation service right from the module configuration page. Follow these steps to get started:
- Open the module configuration.
- Navigate to the "Translate settings" page and select your preferred translation provider.
- Below the field for entering the API key for each provider, click on "How to get API key?" to view the instructions.
- Once you have obtained the key, enter it into the API key field and click the "Check API key" button.
- If the key is valid, save the configuration.
