Translation
Use this page to enable or disable the availability of multiple languages in Clara.
Clara V2 provides multilanguage enablement through any the following Translation Services:

Azure
Note: Multilanguage enablement in Clara is obtained through machine translation. Therefore, it could sometimes produce inaccurate results.
If you are using HCL Translator and you find that the translation is not accurate, you can submit your feedback through the HCL Software portal by providing the original sentence and the correct translation.
In this way, the HCL Translator development team can use your input to re-train the language model and improve the translation quality.
HCL Translator is an API based service. It is based on Machine Learning models that have been trained and fine-tuned to understand context-specific terms or phrases used in the Workload Automation domain, thus greatly improving the user experience. It supports bidirectional automatic translation from English to French, German, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish. For details, see: Installing and Configuring HCL Translator.
