Source JSON Message
Your original source message will contain two important strings: "text" and "language". Inside the "text" string include your message to be translated. Next you will specify your target translation languages. You can specify more than one language! When specifying the "language" string, you may delimit the language codes with a ',' comma. Try a target languages like "zh" for Mandarin. And target the language to be both Mandarin and Spanish "zh,es".
{
"text" : "Hello",
"language" : "zh,es"
}Translated JSON Message
Note that your original "text" string is left intact. You'll see a new "data" object in your JSON message with your requested target translations inside! There is a bonus object too. The "detectedLanguage" object contains the estimated source language you provided. A "score" integer is included based on the estimated accuracy. A score of "score": 1 is a good score. Your translations will be inside the "translations" array. Each element of this array contains each of the translations you requested in your target "language" string. You are able to change any part of the response objects format. Click "Try it now" to install this function in your PubNub dashboard.
