# Add a Translate Button to Feed Items in Experience Builder Sites

A translation setting in Experience Builder puts a Translate with Google menu on every feed item. Translations are offered through a Google Cloud Translation API key that you provide.

Before you configure translation, go to [https://cloud.google.com/translate](https://cloud.google.com/translate), and get your translation key.

Note Google Cloud Translation is a subscription service. For pricing information, see [https://cloud.google.com/translate/pricing](https://cloud.google.com/translate/pricing).

Take these steps to add a Google Cloud Translation API key to your site.

1. In Experience Builder, go to **Settings** | **Languages** and enter your Google Cloud Translation API key.
2. Click **Validate & Save Key**.
    
    This action checks the validity of your key, and, if valid, saves your setting.

After you verify and save your key, a **Translate with Google** menu appears on all feed items in your site. Feed items include posts, questions, polls, and their comments, answers, and replies.

- To translate the feed item into the default language, click **Translate with Google**.
    
    For site members, the default language comes from the locale that’s set on the user’s profile. For guest users, it comes from the locale that’s set in the user’s browser.
- To select a language, click the menu icon and select a language from the list.

These languages appear on the translation list.

After translation, **Translate with Google** switches to **View Original**, so it’s easy to switch back to the original language.
