Deepl Translation - how to integrate in Smartsheet?

KROnline

Hello,

I have a question about translations directly in columns. Currently in Excel I use the Deepl API for this, which allows me to translate one cell directly to another. Is it possible to generate something like this from Smartsheet. In one cell is the English text, via a function call I get the translation in another cell.

Thanks a lot

Hi @KROnline

I haven't personally worked with Deepl before, but if you're using their API then you should be able to use the Smartsheet API to update the cell in that row with the desired data as well.

See: Where to Find Information About the Smartsheet API / Get Row - API Documentation / Update Row - API Documentation

Cheers,

Hi Genevieve,

thanks for that information. IF it is possible with the API to use external API from DEEPl in the same way it is possible out of Excel via VBA, than I can try to read in.

I didn't use coding within Smartsheet before, but it sounds interessting.

So it might be possible to have a button to run a code for updating row.

I'll try to find some examples but it seems really useful.

Thanks Kay
