Introduction

ImmiTranslate provides a REST API for the creation and management of human-powered translation services. Our API operates over HTTPS and utilizes standard HTTP response codes. Our responses are exclusively in JSON. Our API is designed to be consumed "server-side" only.

Currently, we only support Certified Translations via our API. Business Translations are not yet supported.

The examples provided are cURL commands that can be used to test functionality.

Authentication

To test your API key, use this code:

curl "https://api.immitranslate.com/v1/ping" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer a1s2d3f4q5w6e7r8t9y0"

Make sure to replace a1s2d3f4q5w6e7r8t9y0 with your API key.

The above command returns 200 OK and JSON structured like this:

{
  "result": "success"
}

ImmiTranslate uses API keys to authenticate access. Once you have an account, head to the API settings page to generate or view your API keys.

All calls to the API require authentication with an API key.

Authorization: Bearer a1s2d3f4q5w6e7r8t9y0

Endpoints

The production API endpoint is:

https://api.immitranslate.com/v1

The sandbox API endpoint is:

https://sandbox-api.immitranslate.com/v1

Sandbox

ImmiTranslate provides a sandbox API for testing. For information on obtaining access to the Sandbox API, head over to the contact page and our team will get back to you.
