How to Simplify the Message Translation and Sharing Process with Slack and AI

r.suzuki

Are you struggling to understand messages from international teams due to language differences? 

Working with international teams is common, but language barriers can make it difficult for your team to fully communicate and understand each other. While translation tools can help, manually translating messages can lead to inconsistencies and create additional work. 

By using AI translation tools and Slack, you can automatically translate messages received in Slack and share them easily with your team, ensuring you and your team never miss important information.

🚀 Let’s Set Up a Flow to Auto-Translate & Share Slack Messages

Let's walk through <span class="mark-yellow">how to set up a flow that automatically translates Slack messages into another language and shares the translated version on Slack</span>.

⏱️ Setup time: 10 minutes

🔧 What You’ll Need

  • A free Yoom account
  • Access to Slack

If you don’t have a Yoom account yet, register now from this registration form!

Step 1: Register Slack in Yoom

Go to "My Apps" from the left side menu and click "+ Add".

Search "Slack" from the app list, and select it.  

Select the Slack workspace and the channel where messages should be posted.

Click "Allow" to grant permissions and complete the integration.‍

Step 2: Copy the Template

Click the "Try It" button to copy the pre-built template into your project.

Click "Try this template".

Click "OK" and give the Flowbot a name to recognize.

The template will be copied to your "My Project".

Step 3: Set Up Slack Trigger

Click on the Slack app trigger action. 

The next screen is pre-configured. You can change the title if you want. 

Set your trigger interval (how often you want Yoom to check Slack for new updates).
It can be set to 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, or 60 minutes. We recommend setting the trigger to the shortest activation interval available for your plan. 

⚠️ Note: The trigger interval varies depending on your Yoom plan. Be sure to check your current plan’s limit.

Next, select the Channel ID.
The messages from this selected channel will then be automatically translated and shared in Slack. You can pick any channel you want. Click on the Channel ID box and choose from the displayed options.

Next, send a test message to the selected Slack channel.
Then return to Yoom and click the “Test” button at the bottom of the screen. 

If you see “Test Successful”, that means everything is working correctly. Simply click “Save” to finalize the setup.

Step 4: Translate

Select "Translate" under the icon with alphabet. 

Now, let’s set up the action.
Choose the number of characters you want to be translated. The selected number of characters will be automatically translated. Once selected, click “Next”.

Click inside the box labeled "Text to be Translated". A dropdown will appear. Select “Message Content" from the retrieved value of the previous action.

For the target language of the translation, you can enter any language you want (e.g., Japanese, Spanish, etc.).

Once you've configured this, press the "Test" button.
If "Test Successful" appears, the setup is correct!

After confirming, press "Save" and proceed to the next step.

📚 Reference: For more details on retrieved values and how to set them up, see the guide here.

Step 5: Send a Message to Slack

Click on the Slack action.

Same as previous steps, the necessary fields have already been filled in for the next page.
All you need to do is confirm that the account information linked with Slack is correct, then click "Next".

Enter all the required fields. 

  • Destination Channel ID: specify where you want to share the translation result.
  • Timestamp: enter the timestamp from the retrieved value from the original Slack message.
  • Message: create the message by quoting the Translation Result from the retrieved value of the previous step. 

Once you’ve entered the details, click "Test.”
If the test is successful, click "Save" to complete the setup.

Step 6: Activate the Flowbot

Toggle the "Trigger On" button to activate your flow! Check if the Flowbot you set up is working properly.

That’s it! 🎉 The Flowbot is now complete!

While exploring ways to improve operational efficiency in a small to medium-sized enterprise in a region with limited human resources, we discovered Yoom. I was amazed at how much efficiency could be achieved by implementing Yoom, something I had casually wished for. Even without any knowledge or experience in systems or programming, our operations have significantly transformed, and I am writing to share this experience with many others who might feel the same way.
