Export/import XLIFF via API?

Hi, we're considering an API integration between our translation quality management product and Wordbee.

Does Wordbee's API allow to export XLIFF files for documents in a given project? Does the API also allow to import XLIFF back (after modification)?

I understand this option is available through the UI, but not sure if API exposes it.

  Hi Kirill,

  Yes this is possible using v2 of the API. The specific methods you look for are documented here:

  http://documents.wordbee.com/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=4102091 

  Please note that v2 is very different from v1: Authentication, All JSON, etc.

  Kind regards,

  Stephan

  The good thing with v2 of the API is that any user (not just admins or platform owners) including translators can use it. The admin just has to generate an API key for the authorized users.

  Of course, a user can only access data that he/she can also access online.

  Regards,

  Stephan

  Thanks very much Stephan - that's exactly what we need!

  Would all Wordbee customer instances have access to V2 of the API, or is this something that you roll out gradually?

  v2 is rolled out and you can use it (you need to activate the tokens as described in the documentation first). Published methods are stable.

  v2 is evolving a lot with new methods added frequently. Over time it will be feature complete.

  Regards,

  Stephan
