Unable to translate text to another language - using AI Builder

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by AlonsoDev 2

I would like to create a flow to have a Smartsheet's text automatically translated to English from any language. Here are some screenshots of the flow. Also where the flow is failing. I'm not able to find anything on fixes online so any advice helps! Thank you in advance!

Ps: Tested with Spanish, flow failed. Tested again with English, flow succeeded.

    Dear A,

     

    Did you compare the output of 'Compose 2' between the english and spanish flow?

    Based on the error I see I expect that the input the flow gets for the 'Translate' action (which is the output of Compose 2) is the cause.

    Once you see the difference you will likely know where to go find a solution.

     

    Happy flowing,

    Koen

    Yes so when I compared the 2 tests. The Spanish test, 'compose 2' does not show any data at all (Screenshot below). I changed the 'compose 2' to something that I can actually read. 'Compose 1' shows the actual translate value. I don't think anything is wrong with the following expression of 'compose 2': 

    first(skip(triggerBody()?['cells'], 1))?['value'] 
    I did this because the first trigger is only pulling 2 fields from the smartsheet (description, additional comments)
