How to connect Google Cloud Translate and PostgreSQL
Create a New Scenario to Connect Google Cloud Translate and PostgreSQL
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Google Cloud Translate, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Google Cloud Translate or PostgreSQL will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Google Cloud Translate or PostgreSQL, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Google Cloud Translate Node
Select the Google Cloud Translate node from the app selection panel on the right.

Google Cloud Translate
Configure the Google Cloud Translate
Click on the Google Cloud Translate node to configure it. You can modify the Google Cloud Translate URL and choose between DEV and PROD versions. You can also copy it for use in further automations.
Add the PostgreSQL Node
Next, click the plus (+) icon on the Google Cloud Translate node, select PostgreSQL from the list of available apps, and choose the action you need from the list of nodes within PostgreSQL.

Authenticate PostgreSQL
Now, click the PostgreSQL node and select the connection option. This can be an OAuth2 connection or an API key, which you can obtain in your PostgreSQL settings. Authentication allows you to use PostgreSQL through Latenode.
Configure the Google Cloud Translate and PostgreSQL Nodes
Next, configure the nodes by filling in the required parameters according to your logic. Fields marked with a red asterisk (*) are mandatory.
Set Up the Google Cloud Translate and PostgreSQL Integration
Use various Latenode nodes to transform data and enhance your integration:
- Branching: Create multiple branches within the scenario to handle complex logic.
- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.
- Iteration: Process arrays of data when needed.
- Code: Write custom code or ask our AI assistant to do it for you.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Google Cloud Translate, PostgreSQL, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Google Cloud Translate and PostgreSQL integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Google Cloud Translate and PostgreSQL (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Google Cloud Translate and PostgreSQL
PostgreSQL + Google Cloud Translate + Slack: Monitors a PostgreSQL database for new or updated customer feedback. When detected, the feedback is translated into English using Google Cloud Translate, and a summary of the translated feedback is sent to a designated Slack channel for review.
PostgreSQL + Google Cloud Translate + Google Sheets: When new product descriptions are added or updated in a PostgreSQL database, the descriptions are translated into another language using Google Cloud Translate. The original and translated descriptions are then saved into a Google Sheet for easy access and comparison.
