New Features for ChimeV5.AI.AgentTranslation

Tenant-level Language Selection

ChimeV5.AI.AgentTranslation introduces tenant-level language selection, allowing administrators to control language options available to agents. The toggle for "Select Available Languages" empowers administrators to either permit agents to choose from all Azure Translation-supported languages or restrict them to a predefined list.

Agent Language Selection

Agents now have a "Translation Settings" tab in their user profile, enabling them to set their preferred language. Administrators can also manage this preference from the Manager Dashboard or the Agent Dashboard.

Guest Webclient Changes

The guest's preferred language is automatically detected based on their browser language settings. For testing purposes, this can be overridden through Chrome Dev Tools.

Agent Web Client Changes

Translation Tab

The agent web client now boasts a "Translation" tab when connected to a guest. Agents can set their preferred language, and this locale is tagged to their connection for the duration of the chat session.

Real-time Translation

Messages between the guest and the agent are translated in real-time. Whether the language is the same or different, ChimeV5.AI.AgentTranslation ensures clear communication.

Chat Transcript

The chat transcript provides a comprehensive record, showcasing the guest's experience with translated messages received and the original text sent by agents.

Architectural Details

ChimeV5.AI.AgentTranslation takes a server-side approach for translation, enhancing simplicity and security. By handling translations on the server engine side, the system avoids exposing API keys to the client, ensuring a more secure environment.

The decision to implement server-side translation simplifies the process of translating plain-text messages exchanged between agents and guests. This approach also maintains a secure environment for API keys, eliminating potential risks associated with client-side exposure.
