Language Weaver

Overview

Language Weaver (NMT) is RWS's state-of-the-art secure machine translation cloud product for enterprises with various paid subscription models.

Setup

RWS MT Cloud Provider Plugin

  • You can download the plugin using the RWS App Store Integration from within Studio 2021, or from the RWS AppStore if you have an earlier version of Studio

If you have downloaded from the RWS AppStore, double-click the application, to start the installation and follow the instructions. You should have ADMIN rights on your computer to install.

(You may need to move the plugin from your downloads' folder to your desktop, as some browsers prevent installation directly from the download's folder)

 Configuration

To add the provider to your project

  1. Select Project Settings -> Language Pairs-> Translation Memory and Automated Translation
  2. Click on the button "Use..." and select "Language Weaver provider" from the drop-down list

 

Authentication

RWS Machine Translation Cloud provides various methods for authenticating your credentials.  Select the appropriate authentication type and provide the data that is required.

Authentication Type

  • Studio credentials - RWS Language Cloud
        Inherits the SSO credential and 'Sign In' workflow from Studio
  • User credentials - Language Weaver provider
        The same Email and Password that you use, to log into Language Weaver API
  • Client credential - RWS Machine Translation Cloud
        The Client ID and Client Secret can be retrieved by an admin user from RWS Machine Translation Cloud

If for any reason your login credentials are incorrect, you will now see a warning message.

Please check your logon credentials and Authentication type as explained earlier in this wiki.


Note:

The authentication type "Studio credentials..." automatically inherits the SSO (i.e. Single Sign-On) credential and 'Sign In' workflow from Studio, so if you are already signed in, then that credential can be reused to authenticate you against RWS MT Cloud.

 Settings

To access the provider settings, select the "RWS Machine Translation Cloud provider" from the project settings and click on the button "Settings"

The entries presented in the settings reflect the project language pairs, and are automatically mapped to the MT Cloud languages via the "Language Mapping" interface. 

When loading the provider for the first time, the generic model will be selected for each of the language pairs.  To choose a different model and/or dictionary, simply select them from the available options in drop-down menus appropriately.

The models and dictionaries for each of the language pairs will reflect what is available from your subscription.


Note: by default the "Re-send draft and translated segments" is checked.
