IBM Watson Translator Integration with ServiceNow

Import · May 06, 2020 · article

Hi All, some time ago I integrated ServiceNow instance with IBM Watson Translation Service. Writing steps here with the hope that it's useful for anyone trying to do a similar integration.

Step 1- Go to https://cloud.ibm.com. Create an Id if you do not have one, and login.

Step 2 - Search for translator service

Step 3- Create the service and note down the service credentials.

Step 4- Now go to your ServiceNow instance and install Dynamic translation plugin

Step 5- Once the plugin is installed, you should see Dynamic translation in the left navigation:

Step 6- Go to integration hub>Credentials and setup your credentials. Note username as apikey and apikey as the actual key.

Step 7 - In Integration Hub >connection and credentials alias there should be an entry of IBM Translationimage

Step 8 - Now go to Integration Hub > connections, and pick the connection alias created in step 7

use connection URL from Step 2 (after creating service URL would be included in credentials tab)

Step 9 - Setup default language of your instance

Step 10: You should now see a symbol like below on the string fields on formsimage

Step 11- Test. Write something in language that is not default language of your instance and click the symbol from step 10. The system would translate it for you and show results
