Last updated 1 year ago

To setup automatic translation on a Direct Message (DM), the @translate bot needs to be part of the DM. To do this, create a new DM that includes both @translate and the person you want to DM with. Now this new DM includes @translate, so the bot can perform auto-translations. Within the new DM, mention @translate to get the menu buttons, choose [Settings], etc., .

just as you would for any channel
