Today, we're excited to announce the release of the Google Translator
Toolkit Data API. Translator Toolkit is a powerful but
easy-to-use editor that enables translators to bring a human touch to machine translation
through translation search, bilingual dictionaries, and custom terminology databases. Using
Translator Toolkit, you can translate HTML, Word, AdWords, Wikipedia, and other documents in a
WYSIWYG ("what-you-see-is-what-you-get") editor, share them with other users, and download
their translations onto your desktop.
Through our new API, you can
upload, share, download, and delete your documents, glossaries, and translation memories using
the Google Data
Protocol. That means that integrating human translation into your translators'
workflow just got easier! Here are a few things you can do with the Translator Toolkit
API:
Automatically connect your content management
system (CMS) with Translator Toolkit. You can transform your content into HTML
files, protect sections of HTML from translation through the
class="notranslate" attribute, upload the HTML files, share the files
with your translators, download the translated HTML, and then transform and upload the
documents back into your CMS.
Automatically connect
your file system with Translator Toolkit. You can create a cron job that uploads
files into Translator Toolkit, shares the files with your translators, then downloads
completed files back to the file system.
