I’m encountering a couple of issues with my current scenario and would really appreciate some assistance.
The core of my use case is to automatically translate Google Docs that my customers are either modifying or creating.
My first challenge is maintaining the original formatting.Specifically, any **typographical changes I make in the original Google Doc are not being replicated in the translated version.
Secondly, I’m struggling with how to implement an “OR” condition within this scenario.What I’m aiming for is that after the translation, a new Google Doc should be created in the designated folder if it doesn’t already exist. However, if a translated version of that document does exist, I need it to be updated, rather than creating a duplicate.
Could anyone provide some guidance on these points?
To preserve the formatting, instead of translating the entire document’s content at once, you’ll need to Iterate through the content blocks and translate each section at a time.
You’ll need to search for an existing document first. See and think about which Google Drive module does this.
Hope this helps! Let me know if there are any further questions or issues. P.S.: investing some effort into the tutorials in the Make Academy will save you lots of time and frustration using Make!
