When I using the component translate today, the message shows, is it outdated? Thunkable Yandex.Translate API is no longer available. Please switch to Translate service in Yandex.Cloud Thanks Sunny ---

Hi @s20211119d5fui7 @3330evegkrur3 @dosantoss @jocangel86ke1egt Thanks for your patience. The current solution is to set the Google Translate API key in project settings, as mentioned here: [App Settings | Thunkable Docs](https://docs.thunkable.com/settings/project-settings#google-translate-settings) Here are the steps: 1. Starting from Google Cloud Console, navigate to Cloud Translation API - [Google Cloud console](https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/library?authuser=1&project=profound-gantry-476517-u9&supportedpurview=project) 2. Enable Cloud Translation API & set up billing (your first $300 of credits are free from Google) 3. Once enabled, click Manage. Go through the OAuth consent screen settings 4. Scroll down to API Keys. Above it you will see a button, +Create credentials. Select API Key. 5. Create the API Key, and copy/paste it into the Google Cloud Translation API Key in Thunkable ---

Since the Yandex translator in Thunkable is currently failing, has anyone tried create a translation app using the **LibreTranslate API** (a free, open-source alternative that doesn’t require an API key for basic usage)? Any apps in Sample Project or the Public Gallery? Link to it? ---

I’m gonna test Libretranslate, thanks for the free alternative! Since the translator is included in my published app, it would be a financial disaster for me if every user used it…). ---

@ioannis Does the Thunkable Team plan to add Google translate API on Snap-to-Place version ? ---

Hi @dosantoss I haven’t received an update about this from the engineers yet. I believe that you could implement the Google Translate API using the Web API component on Snap-to-Place ---

Hi @ioannis! Thanks for the update. On a Drag-and-drop test app, using Thunkable live (updated version), the translation block still refers to Yandex translate, and doesn’t work even with a Google Cloud translation API key (iOS device and no restriction API keys tested). ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/6/6/66408f6ec3ac82ddb7dbd7cf26c7886e33aa2464.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/a/c/acd860d5a9c08bb6e83223da9ffd3e4beaee5f56.png) ---

Hi @dosantoss Could you please make sure that you are using version 530 on the Thunkable live app? ---

You were right, I didn’t update Thunkable live to the latest version… Works well now, thank you !
