Show full answer Show less ## Important Upgrade Information * There are no specific pre- or post-upgrade tasks unique to Dynamic Translation for the Australia release. * No updates or changes were introduced specifically in the Australia release. ## New Features Introduced Between Yokohama and Australia * **Exclusion Framework (Yokohama):** Allows you to preserve specific text such as product names or technical terms from being translated by specifying words or patterns to exclude from machine translation. * **API Upgrade (Yokohama):** Default translator configurations now use upgraded v4 APIs automatically. For customized configurations, manual migration to v4 APIs is required. The older v3 APIs remain supported. * **Test Exclusion Rule Module (Zurich):** Enables you to test exclusion patterns (including regex) against sample input to verify what will be excluded during translation. Once satisfied, you can create exclusion rules directly from the test results. ## Changes to Existing Features * **Coral Theme (Zurich):** Introduced as the default theme for new portals and mobile/web experiences when using Next Experience or Core UI. It features brand-neutral illustrations and includes a dark theme option to improve readability and reduce eye strain. * No changes were made in Yokohama or Australia releases. ## Deprecations * **IBM Watson Translator Service Spoke (Yokohama):** The spoke for IBM Watson Translator Service for IBM Cloud (com.glide.ibmtranslationspoke) was removed due to IBM withdrawing this service. Customers using this spoke will need to consider alternatives. * No other deprecations in Zurich or Australia releases. ## Activation and Additional Requirements * Dynamic Translation is an AI Platform feature requiring activation of the Dynamic Translation plugin (com.glide.dynamictranslation). * No new activation changes or additional system/browser requirements were introduced between Yokohama and Australia. ## Accessibility and Localization * The Coral theme's dark mode option introduced in Zurich helps improve accessibility by reducing eye strain. * There are no changes in localization or other accessibility requirements from Yokohama through Australia. ## Practical Implications for ServiceNow Customers * Customers upgrading to Australia should plan to migrate any customized translator configurations manually to take advantage of the v4 APIs. * Utilize the Exclusion Framework and Test Exclusion Rule module to refine translation accuracy by protecting critical terms and verifying exclusion patterns. * Review your use of the IBM Watson Translator Service spoke and transition away if still in use, since it is deprecated. * Leverage the new Coral theme and dark mode to enhance user experience on portals and mobile devices.
