I would start here and maybe try out some sample calls to the API in Postman first (note you'll likely need a Google account and API key). When you're ready to use it in a ThingWorx service, you can use the PostJSON ContentLoaderFunction to call the api with your dynamic data.

@Vignesh@95 ,

First set up your localization tables.

1. Add Day,FS,Gear,Shaft to your Default localization table

2. Now go to the other language localization tables and add the translated strings (the tokens will show up automatically after you add them to Default)

Next, in your service, you can do something like this:

let languages = Users[userName].language;

let preferredLanguage = languages.split(',')[0];

// value: STRING
let value = LocalizationTables[preferredLanguage].GetToken({
	name: valueToTranslate /* STRING */
});

The first line is retrieving the user's list of preferred languages from their User Profile (returned as a comma-separated list)

The second line is grabbing the top priority language from the list above.

The third line is getting that translated token from the preferred language. Note that this assumes that the Default token name is the same as the string that you're trying to translate. You'll have to integrate this into your infotable code but hopefully this is a good start.
