Domain separation in Dynamic Translation is configured to apply to translator
configurations. With
domain separation you can separate data, processes, and administrative tasks into logical
groupings called domains. You can then control several aspects of this separation, including
which users can see and access data.
Support level: Basic
Business logic: Ensure that data goes into the proper domain for the application’s
service provider use cases.
The application supports domain separation at run time. This includes domain
separation from the user interface, cache keys, reporting, rollups, and aggregations.
The owner of the instance must set up the application to function across multiple
tenants.
Use case: When a service provider (SP) uses chat to respond to a tenant-customer’s
message, the client must be able to see the SP's response.
Activation information
You should activate the Domain Support - Domain Extensions Installer plugin
(com.glide.domain.msp_extensions.installer). For information on how you can request the plugin
activation, see Request for domain separation in Dynamic Translation .
How domain separation works in Dynamic Translation
A service provider with domain separated instances can implement the Dynamic Translation
framework so that users can use the translation service providers configured in the translator
configurations specific to their domain. Translator configurations are process-separated in Dynamic Translation . All translation service providers configured in the translator
configurations of the parent domain are available in child domains.
A translator configuration in the global domain is visible in all other domains. In any
domain, a user can only view the translator configurations configured in the following
domains:
Current domain
Parent domains
Global domain
Note: If there are multiple translator configurations in a domain for the same translation
service provider, the translator configuration of the current domain or the closest parent
domain is considered for dynamic translation.
Also, different connections can be configured for the same connection and credential alias of
a translation service provider in multiple domains. However, Credentials and Connections are
data-separated. So, a connection configured in a child domain is visible in parent domains. For
information on domain separation for Connections and Credentials, see Domain separation for Credentials and
Connections .
For example, consider the following scenario:
Figure 1. Connections for a translation service provider in multiple domains
Different connections are configured for the same connection and credential alias of Google in
multiple domains. When in Domain A, all the following connections are visible:
Connection1
Connection2
Connection3
Note: When multiple active connections are visible for the same connection and credential
alias in a domain, the connection with the highest order is given priority when the
Support Multiple Active Connections check box is selected.

Default translator configuration for a domain
The default translator configuration of the current domain is always considered for dynamic
translation. If the current domain does not have any default translator configuration, then the
available default translator configuration of the nearest parent is considered.
A domain can have multiple default translator configurations. In this case also, the default
translator configuration of the current domain is considered for dynamic translation. For
example, let us consider the following scenario:
Figure 2. Domain separation in Dynamic Translation
In Domain B, both TC1 and TC2 are visible. From Domain B, TC2 is first set as the default
translator configuration. From Domain A, TC1 is then overridden and set as the default
translator configuration. This results in multiple default translator configurations in Domain
B. In this case, when in Domain B, TC2 is used as the default translator configuration for
dynamic translation.
Overriding a translator configuration
In any domain, you can override the translator configuration of that domain or the parent
domain. The overridden translator configuration of a parent domain is also visible in child
domains. However, the overridden translator configuration of a child domain is not visible in
the parent domain.
After you override a translator configuration of the same domain, only the overridden
translator configuration is visible in that domain.
After you override a translator configuration of a parent domain, the following scenarios
happen:
Only the overridden translator configuration is visible in the child domain.
The Overrides field of overridden translator configuration refers to
the original translator configuration of the parent domain.
For example, consider the following scenario:
Figure 3. Domain separation in Dynamic Translation
You can override a translator configuration TC1 from Domain B. After overriding, only the
overridden configuration TC1 is available in Domain B and the Overrides
field of TC1 refers to TC1 of the parent domain.
