To successfully establish a connection and send requests to the Microsoft Translator, the [Microsoft Translator Scope](https://docs.uipath.com/activities/other/latest/legacy-integrations/microsoft-translator-scope) activity must complete authentication using the supported authentication methods that Translator supports.

Please see [Quickstart: Get started with Translator](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cognitive-services/translator/quickstart-translator?tabs=csharp) for more information in how to get started with Microsoft Translator.

To give the **Microsoft Translator Scope** activity the ability to authenticate and to enable the other activities to successfully send requests to Microsoft Translator API, you must complete the following steps:

## 1. Obtain the subscription key

1. Create an Azure subscription if you do not already have one. You can [create one for free](https://azure.microsoft.com/free/cognitive-services/).
2. Once you have an Azure subscription, [create a Translator resource](https://ms.portal.azure.com/#create/Microsoft.CognitiveServicesTextTranslation) in the Azure portal to get your key and endpoint. After it deploys, select **Go to resource**.
3. You'll need the key and endpoint from the resource to connect your application to the Translator service.
4. Save your key and endpoint as you will need them for the Microsoft Translator Scope activity.

## 2. Build your project

1. Create a new automation project.
   1. Open **UiPath Studio**.
   2. Under **New Project**, click **Process** (this opens a **New Blank Process** window).
   3. Enter a project **Name**,**Location**, and **Description**.
   4. Click **Create**.
2. Install the **UiPath.MicrosoftTranslator.Activities** package.
   1. In the **Design** ribbon, click **Manage Packages** (this opens the **Manage Packages** window).
   2. Under **All Packages**, click **Connect**
   3. In the **Search** bar, enter *Microsoft Translator*.
   4. Click, install and accept the license for the **UiPath.MicrosoftTranslator.Activities**.
      * For more information about Uipath Studio packages, see [Managing Packages](https://docs.uipath.com/studio/docs/managing-activities-packages) in the Studio Guide.

You're done!

Now that you have completed the setup, you can start adding the Microsoft Translator activities to your project.
