Lilt REST API API Reference

The Lilt REST API enables programmatic access to the full-range of Lilt backend services including:

  • Training of and translating with interactive, adaptive machine translation
  • Large-scale translation memory
  • The Lexicon (a large-scale termbase)
  • Programmatic control of the Lilt CAT environment
  • Translation memory synchronization

Requests and responses are in JSON format. The REST API only responds to HTTPS / SSL requests.

Authentication

Requests are authenticated via REST API key, which requires the Business plan.

Requests are authenticated using HTTP Basic Auth. Add your REST API key as both the username and password.

For development, you may also pass the REST API key via the key query parameter. This is less secure than HTTP Basic Auth, and is not recommended for production use.

Quotas

Our services have a general quota of 4000 requests per minute. Should you hit the maximum requests per minute, you will need to wait 60 seconds before you can send another request.

Documents

Create a Document

POST /documents

Create a new Document. A Document is a collection of one or more Segments. Documents are nested inside of Projects, and appear in the Project details view in the web app. Document-level relationships between Segments are considered by the machine translation system during adaptation. If there is no inherent document structure in your data, you still might consider grouping related Segments into Documents to improve translation quality.

Pretranslate a Document

POST /documents/pretranslate

Initiate pretranslation of a list of Documents. This request will mark document(s) as being pretranslated. Pretranslation in this context is:

  • Applying and confirming exact TM matches based on the Memory of the Project;
  • Translating all other segments via MT without confirming them.

Example CURL command:

curl -X POST https://lilt.com/2/documents/pretranslate?key=API_KEY -d '{"id": [123]}' -H "Content-Type: application/json"

Document translation is an asynchronous process that, in effect, is performed in the background.

To check the status of pretranslation for a document, use the GET /documents endpoint. When pretranslation is in progress for a document, the GET /documents endpoint's response will include is_pretranslating = true as well as a more detailed status property status.pretranslation one of idle, pending, or running.

Once pretranslation is finished, the document can be downloaded via GET /documents/files.

auto_accept: boolean

Optional parameter for auto-accepting 100% TM hits.

case_sensitive: boolean

File names in the header can only contain US-ASCII characters. File names with characters outside of US-ASCII should be URI encoded or transliterated to US-ASCII strings.

Example CURL command:

  curl -X POST https://lilt.com/2/documents/files?key=API_KEY \
  --header "LILT-API: {\"name\": \"introduction.xliff\",\"pretranslate\": \"tm+mt\",\"project_id\": 9}" \
  --header "Content-Type: application/octet-stream" \

auto_accept: boolean
in header

An optional parameter to auto-accept segments with 100% translation memory matches when the pretranslate option is also set, or to auto-accept any target data that is present when the uploaded file is XLIFF. If omitted it will default to your organization settings for Accept and lock exact matches, if set to false, no segments will be auto-accepted.

case_sensitive: boolean
in header

An optional parameter to use case sensitive translation memory matching when the pretranslate option is also enabled. Matches must have identical character-by-character case to qualify as matches. Default value matches your organization settings for Use case sensitive translation memory matching setting

match_attribution: boolean
in header

An optional parameter to attribute translation authorship of exact matches to the author of the file when the pretranslate option is also enabled. Default value matches your organization settings for Translation authorship setting

Retrieve a Project

GET /projects

Retrieves one or more projects, including the documents associated with each project. Retrieving a project is the most efficient way to retrieve a single project, multiple projects or a list of all available projects.

To retrieve a specific project, specify the id request parameter or you can retrieve multiple projects by adding comma (,) between ids eg. ?id=1234,5678. To retrieve all projects, omit the id request parameter. To limit the retrieved projects to those with a particular source language or target language, specify the corresponding ISO 639-1 language codes in the srclang and trglang request parameters, respectively.

trglang: string

from_time: integer
in query

Unix time stamp (epoch, in seconds) of Projects with created_at greater than or equal to the value.

to_time: integer
