Issue of Microsoft Translator - Tranlate Text

[yoshihirok]

Action 'Microsoft Translator - Translate Text''s output is JSON text, not Translated Text.

The result example:

{ "statusCode": 200, "headers": { "Pragma": "no-cache", "x-ms-request-id": "0797e183-908b-48e8-87d4-954df93c2827", "Cache-Control": "no-cache", "Date": "Sat, 24 Dec 2016 11:01:32 GMT", "Set-Cookie": "ARRAffinity=a0d9ab6dc8facbfb6adc55a4577a3242faedf7e86b07d9afecd63b6b5836935b;Path=/;Domain=127.0.0.1", "Server": "Microsoft-IIS/8.0,Microsoft-HTTPAPI/2.0", "X-AspNet-Version": "4.0.30319", "X-Powered-By": "ASP.NET", "Content-Length": "129", "Content-Type": "application/json", "Expires": "-1" }, "body": "Hello" }

My hope result:

"Hello" 

Re-pro flow:

1. Trigger "Flow button for mobile"

2. Action "Compose"

  Name: "Text1"

  Value: "Hello"

3. Action "Microsoft Translator - Translate Text"

  Name: "Text2"

  Input: 'Text1' - Output

  Traget language: English

4. Action "Send a push notification"

  Name "notification"

  Text: "Text2" - Output

"Microsoft Translator - Translate Text" outputs may was not JSON, Just translated Text at Nov, 2016.

Hi Yoshihiro,

I create a flow according to your scenario. Below is a screenshot of my flow. It works well when I click the button to run the flow.

I also try with a flow to send email, it also works well.

Could you please try to recreate the flow to see if it works?

Best regards,

Hi, @v-yamao-msft

Thank you for your check this issue.

This issue is the outputs() result of Microsoft Translator.

Other actions's outputs() result is Text value.

The Microsoft Translator actions's outputs() result is JSON value.

My reproduce flow:

1. Trigger - Button

2. Action - Compose

  Name: Text1

  Inputs: One

3. Action - Microsoft Translator - Translate Text

  Name: TextT

  Text: Text1 - outputs

  Target language: Japanese

4. Action - Compose

  Name: OutuptsText1

  Inputs: "@outputs('Text1')"

5. Action - Compose

  Name: OutputsTextT

  Inputs: "@outputs('TextT')"

6. Action - Send a push notification

  Name: Send a push notification

  Text: OutputsText1 - Outputs, OutputsTextT - Outputs

I hope the "いち" result of Microsoft Translator - Translate Text,

But now the value is JSON data.

The log of this fow

and The detail of flow

Hi Yoshihiro,

I guess your scenario should be that you want to get the translate text using this flow. So may I suggest you move Action4 and Action5, configure Action6 after Action3.

Please also try my flow configuration to see if it meet your needs.

Hi, @v-yamao-msft

Thank you for you reply, and ideas.

I want to use "Translate Text" output in "Compose" action and Workflow Definition Language.

Microsoft Flow can use other trigger/actions outputs by Workflow Definition Language in "Compoase" actions.

This make Microsoft Flow to more powerful / flexible.

Like: "@coalesce(outputs('Text1'), outputs('Text2'), '-')" in "Compose" action can create a new value that select non-null value from some values.

Current Microsoft Flow trigger/actions outputs can use by Workflow Definition Language in "Compose" action.

So, I want to use "Translate Text" outputs by Workflow Definition Language in "Compose" action.

I SOLVED.

The "Translate Text" outputs for "Compose" action's Workflow Definition Language is,

outputs('TranslateText').body

instead of outputs('TranslateText')
