Настройка систем машинного перевода

Machine translation engines integrated with Crowdin provide translation suggestions from automatic translation services like Google Translate and AutoML Translation, Microsoft Translate, and more.

Additionally, you can add more machine translation engines by installing respective applications from the Crowdin Marketplace.

Suggestions made by machine engines are displayed in the Editor under the translators’ suggestions field. Also, you can do pre-translation using machine translation engines.

By default, machine translations are enabled for each project, but it is required to configure the translation engines before the project members can use them. If you want to disable this option for specific projects, clear Show machine translation suggestions in the project’s Settings tab.

To configure the machine translation engines, follow these steps:

1. Open your profile home page and go to the Machine Translation tab.
2. Fill in the credentials of the preferred translation engine.
3. Click Update.

MT Engine IDs

You can also get your MT engine IDs via API.
