Configure For Power Automate

For additional support, create a ticketPREPARATION

The Power Automate interface can work with either SSL or without. However, unlike the Power Translator app, it requires an address that is routable with public DNS. The AppReg script that is provided assumes that the same hostname, port, and scheme are used for the app and for Power Automate, but that can easily be changed afterward.

PointFire Translator server communicates via TCP on port 33080 or 33443. These ports are typically blocked by default rules on network and server firewalls. If the server is using Windows Firewall, you will need to create inbound rules to open those ports, using Microsoft Management Console or netsh. If the server is an Azure VM, you will also have to go to the Azure Portal on the VM's Networking tab to add inbound port rules for those two ports.

INSTALLATION

Before the Power Automate can be used to translate pages or documents, it is essential to register it and grant it the necessary permissions through the Azure Active Directory portal corresponding to the SharePoint Online tenancy.

The simplest way to do this is to using the “AppReg.ps1” script.  This script will register the PointFire Translator server for use with the PointFire Translate app, and will also carry out the steps to use it with Power Automate.  The script will log in once to register and request permissions, and a second time to grant the permissions.  If you wish to re-run the script after successfully registering the application, it will overwrite the existing “PointFire Translator” application in AzureAD.

To accomplish this registration manually instead of using the script, please see the Installation Guide.

To guide you in the questions that the AppReg.ps1 script will ask, you cannot use the PointFire Translator Server Quick Installation Steps manual, you must use the full PointFire Translator Server Installation & Configuration Manual.  This installation on a shared server is more complex, but it supports Power Automate.

The script will log in once to register and request permissions, and a second time to grant the permissions.  If you wish to re-run the script after successfully registering the application, you will need to delete the “PointFire Translator” application in AzureAD.  The appropriate Power Automate parameters are saved in a Swagger file that can be imported as a custom connector by Power Automate.

More details about importing and using this custom connector are to be found in the PointFire Translator V2 Administrator Guide.
