About

This API lets you translate documents into different languages. The API supports a variety of file formats including PDF, DOC, and image files.
The API follows the ISO 639-1 standard for language codes, ensuring accurate and standardized translations, which is crucial in maintaining consistency across multilingual projects. Additionally, the API offers a transliteration feature to Latin script, helping in the pronunciation of non-Latin scripts.

Authentication

All API requests to ApyHub services need to be authenticated. Currently we support tokens or basic authentication mechanisms. You can generate and view your existing credentials from your workspace settings (on the left side of the navbar) and go to “API Keys".
Points to note:
  • Credential secrets are generated on the fly and are not stored in plain text, so on generating a credential please save the secrets somewhere safe.
  • Use the apy-token as the header parameter to pass the token.
  • Use the Authorization header to send the basic authentication credentials.
