Translate cells between languages. Renders text down a whole column — Sheets or Excel, no add-on juggling.
It's one of 250+ live sources you reach with a single =VERVE() function — served from APIVerve's production data engine, billed at 40 credits per resolved cell, and refreshed on whatever cadence you set. No API keys to wrangle, no scripts, no exports.
A real example — the input you type, and the values you can pull from it. Click any cell to see the formula behind it.
Fill =VERVE("translator", "I'm so excited that tomorrow is going to be sunny! Can't wait!", "es", "field", "sourceLang") beside messy text and get the normalized, analyzed, or translated version back — data cleaning without leaving the grid.
Score or classify a whole column of responses, reviews, or messages in one fill instead of one-by-one.
Nest Translate Text's output inside your existing SUM, IF, or CONCAT logic like any other cell value.
The same function works in both apps — install once, sign in with your key, and type it into any cell.
Google SheetsAdd-onInstall from the Workspace Marketplace, then drop the formula into a cell. Autocomplete suggests the source and its fields.
=VERVE("translator", "I'm so excited that tomorrow is going to be sunny! Can't wait!", "es", "field", "sourceLang")
Microsoft ExcelAdd-inSame source, same arguments, same key — in Excel on desktop, the web, or mobile. Excel namespaces it as VERVE.CALL. Drag to fill a whole column.
=VERVE.CALL("translator", "I'm so excited that tomorrow is going to be sunny! Can't wait!", "es", "field", "sourceLang")Tune the result by adding name=value before the field argument — in any order. Leave one out and its default applies.
The language code of the text to translate (e.g., en). If left blank, language will be auto-detected
=VERVE("translator", "I'm so excited that tomorrow is going to be sunny! Can't wait!", "es", "source", "en")text (default) or html. With html, markup and entities are kept and only the text between tags is translated
=VERVE("translator", "I'm so excited that tomorrow is going to be sunny! Can't wait!", "es", "format", "text")Add a field name as the last argument to land just that value in the cell.
=VERVE("translator", "I'm so excited that tomorrow is going to be sunny! Can't wait!", "es", "field", "sourceLang")=VERVE("translator", "I'm so excited that tomorrow is going to be sunny!
