Tencent Translate API

1. Apply for a Free API

Open the Tencent Machine Translation Console: https://console.cloud.tencent.com/tmt. If you're not logged in, you'll be redirected to the login page. After logging in, reopen the page and agree to the pop-up agreement to use it for free. It offers a free quota of 5 million characters per month, which is 100 times more than Baidu.

2. Create AppId and Secret Key

After completing the first step, open this address: https://console.cloud.tencent.com/cam/capi

Click "Continue to use"

Then, on this page, click "Create Secret Key" to automatically create a pair of ID and key.

Copy the SecretId and SecretKey.

Fill them into the Settings menu - Tencent Translation Settings.

Important Notes:

Most AI translation channels may limit the number of requests per minute. If you encounter an error message indicating that the request frequency is exceeded, you can set a delay time through the software's Menu -- Tools/Advanced Settings -- Advanced Settings/set.ini -- Pause after translation setting. For example, setting it to 30 means that the system will wait for 30 seconds after each translation before performing the next one, avoiding errors due to exceeding the limit frequency.
