I am new to AEM, and have been working on creating a spa using angular. I have created a custom dialog content component to enter data into, which is then injected into the angular component via sling mode json. The issue I am having is that I am trying to create automated translations using language copies and ms translator, but have been completely unsuccessful in actually getting the content to translate from english to any other language I select. My setup and process looks something like the below. Thanks in advance for any help.
1. I have a custom cq:dialog component at a path like this "/apps/my-project/components/my-app-content-dialog-component", that is used to populate the data model for the angular app.
2. I have a page that loads my angular app component at a path like this http://localhost:4502/editor.html/content/my-project/us/en/my-app-component.html
3. I have populated content which I have entered for the english version at "/content/my-project/us/en/my-app-component"
4. I have then "en" page set as the root language page
5. I created a new language copy based on "/content/my-project/us/en/my-app-component", using ms translate, which I have setup with my account id.
6. After selecting a non english language to be created I select "Create structure only"
7. I create the new page successfully, select it and see that the content for the custom dialog component has been transferred, but has not been translated.
8. I have no clue how to get the content to translate via the api.
Any ideas on what I am missing here? I have read about creating translations rules, etc, but I am either failing to set that up properly, or it is a red herring, and I'm missing something else.
