How to translate messages sent to Slack using AI and send them to Discord

In the IT society, it has become common to work on projects with overseas members. However, there is inevitably a variation in language skills among individuals, making it difficult for the entire Japanese team to understand other languages.
In such cases, translation devices are convenient, but if each person translates messages sent from the overseas team, discrepancies in understanding may occur. It might be a good idea to translate the messages sent from the overseas team and resend them in Japanese, but this can also feel cumbersome.
So, this time, we would like to introduce the integration of Slack and Discord with a translation device to solve such problems!
With Yoom's app integration, the range of communication might expand. Please read to the end!

This article introduces a method of integration using the no-code tool "Yoom". No complicated settings or operations are required, and even non-engineers can easily achieve it. You can start immediately with the template below, so please give it a try!
[What is Yoom]
How to Create a Slack and Discord Integration Flow
Now, let's introduce the steps to create a flow bot that "translates messages posted on Slack and posts the translated version on Discord."
The flow bot creation process consists of three steps!
By using a template with minimal settings, you can quickly create a flow bot.
First, proceed with Yoom registration from the "Try it out" button on the banner of the template below! If you have already completed the registration, the login screen will be displayed, so please log in!
My App Integration
Once you have completed the registration for Yoom and copied the template, a screen like the one above will be displayed, and you will transition to a page called "My Projects". Once this is complete, let's proceed to integrate Slack and Discord with Yoom. This is called "My App Integration"! ↓ First, let's integrate Slack with Yoom. Select My Apps from the menu on the screen and click on New Creation at the top right! Enter "Slack" in the search window, and when the Slack icon appears, click on it.
A screen like the one above will be displayed, so select the desired channel and press "Allow" to integrate Slack with Yoom. ↓ Next, let's proceed to the My App Integration for Discord. Click on New Creation at the top right! Enter "Discord" in the search window, and two options, Discord and Discord (v2), will appear. Please select Discord (v2).
Then, proceed with the registration while checking the red-framed Discord (v2) My App Integration Details Page. Once you have entered the required fields in the image above, press Add at the bottom right, and you're good to go!
With the integration of the two apps, Slack and Discord, with Yoom complete, let's move on to setting up the contents of the Flow Bot.
Slack Trigger Settings
From My Projects on the left side of the screen, click on "【Copy】Translate messages posted on Slack and post the translated version to Discord"! Press Edit at the top right.
↓
Press "When a message is sent in the channel" on the Slack icon. Since the necessary fields have already been entered using the template, check that the account information linked to Slack is correct, and then click Next! ↓
Next, let's select the Slack channel. Messages posted in the channel selected here will be notified to Discord. Choose the desired channel.
Click inside the box labeled Channel ID to display a list of Slack channels, and select one to proceed!
Once this is done, send an English message to Slack. Then return to Yoom and press the Test Button at the bottom of the screen. If "Test Successful" is displayed in blue, you're good to go, so press Save!
Translation Settings
Select "Translate" from the icon of alphabets and hiragana.
Let's set up the action. The number of characters selected for the action here will be translated, so choose the desired number of characters.
Once the action is selected, press Next. ↓
Set up the message to be translated. Click inside the box labeled Text to be Translated and...
It will display like this, so select "When a message is sent in the channel" on the Slack icon and choose "Message Content". For the required field of the target language for translation, enter any language you like!
This is how I set it up this time.
Once you've set it up to this point, press the Test Button, and if "Test Successful" is displayed in blue, you're good to go! Press Save and proceed to the next setting.
Discord Settings
Press "Send a message to the thread" on the Discord icon. As with the previous step, the necessary fields have already been entered using the template, so check that the account information linked to Discord is correct, and then click Next.
↓
Enter the Channel ID.
The Channel ID is displayed in the URL of the Discord channel, so you can copy and paste it!
The next step is the final setting! Let's decide on the content to be notified to Discord.
Click inside the message box, and the translated message will be available for selection, so just choose it.
The red-framed item in the image is the translated message.
Once you have selected it as shown in the image, press Test at the bottom of the screen, and if "Test Successful" is displayed in blue, you're good to go. The notification also went to Discord at the same time as the test!
Once this is done, press Save. This concludes the integration of Slack and Discord. Well done!
Other Automation Examples Using Slack and Discord
In addition to the flow introduced this time, you can achieve various business automations by using the Slack and Discord APIs. All of them can be used with simple settings, so if you find something interesting, please give it a try!
Other Automation Examples with Slack and Discord
You can summarize the content of Slack posts and notify Discord, or notify Slack of posted messages. Additionally, you can integrate Meta Ads (Facebook) with Yoom's schedule trigger to obtain reports and notify Discord.
Automation Example Using Slack
Register and Add When Receiving a Message with Specific Keywords in Slack
Automation can prevent human errors in task creation and help maintain a stable task management process.
Notify on Slack when a lead is registered
When lead information is added, it is automatically notified on Slack, leading to quicker information awareness.
Integrate Yoom's Database with Slack
By including database operations from Yoom in your notifications, you can share information and quickly catch the necessary details.
Example of Automation Using Discord
Notify Discord with Minutes After Meeting Ends
Creating minutes manually can lead to human errors such as sharing omissions, but automation might help reduce these risks.
Notify on Discord when a file is uploaded
This allows you to confirm the upload of new documents on Discord, potentially reducing the effort required for verification tasks.
Benefits of Integrating Slack and Discord
1. Reduce Misunderstandings!
Messages from overseas sent to Slack can be automatically translated and then automatically sent to Discord! This allows all team members to read messages translated by a single translation tool, reducing the likelihood of nuances being lost and making it easier to maintain a consistent level of message understanding.
2. Reduce the Use of Multiple Tools and Maintain Speed!
If you translate messages sent to Slack each time, it can become quite cumbersome depending on the frequency. Additionally, when overwhelmed with work, translation may be postponed, resulting in time loss from receiving to translating and then resending to Discord. In such cases, being able to automatically translate Slack messages allows for message checking without losing speed!
Conclusion
In cases like this, the more frequently you translate, the more cumbersome it becomes. By reducing the number of steps for a single task as much as possible and reviewing the workflow, efficiency can be expected to improve. This is a very practical app integration, so take this opportunity to try Yoom's app integration!

After working as a general store manager, I started working from home as an SEO writer. Later, an outsourcing agreement was signed with a marketing startup for about 5 years.
Surrounded by students at the University of Tokyo, I held a computer and spent my days studying various business terms and how to use SaaS tools.
When I was a general store manager, time was taken over and over again by office work such as sales and inventory management, human resource management, and ordering, etc., and I was unable to serve customers and often missed sales times. Even when outsourcing, there are many detailed tasks such as input, etc., and “can't such monotonous tasks be automated?” I thought so, and I really sympathize with Yoom's vision!
Conventional RPA can only automate simple repetitive tasks, and the setup process was very complicated. With “hyperautomation,” which combines various technologies such as AI, API, RPA, and OCR, it is possible to automate many tasks that could not be realized until now more easily than before.
Most tools simply connect one app to another, leaving the complex tasks to you. Yoom goes much further: From document creation and browser automation to OCR and generative AI, Yoom handles it all seamlessly in one platform.
Why settle for basic integrations? Streamline your entire workflow with Yoom’s powerful hyperautomation.
