Common Errors

Token Access

This error occurs when the access token has expired and cannot be refreshed. To resolve it, refresh the access token by obtaining a new one using the appropriate authentication credentials. Ensure that the credentials provided in the JSON file are valid and have not expired. You may need to regenerate the JSON credentials and update the configuration with the new credentials.

Error Message:

Status(StatusCode="Internal", Detail="Error starting gRPC call. InvalidOperationException: The access token has expired and could not be refreshed. Errors: refresh error, refresh error, refresh error", DebugException="System.InvalidOperationException: The access token has expired and could not be refreshed. Errors: refresh error, refresh error, refresh error")

JSON Parameters

This error indicates that there was an issue creating the credentials from the JSON parameters, possibly due to an unrecognized credential type. Ensure that the JSON file contains the correct and complete credentials required for accessing the Google Cloud Platform Translate API. Double-check the format of the JSON file and verify that it matches the expected structure for the authentication process.

Permissions Denied

The "PermissionDenied" error suggests that the request lacked the necessary authentication scopes. Check the scopes specified in the JSON file and ensure that they include the required permissions for accessing the Google Cloud Platform Translate API. Make sure that the service account associated with the JSON credentials has the appropriate permissions and roles assigned in the Google Cloud Console. Review the documentation for the Translate API to identify the specific scopes needed and update the JSON file accordingly.
