documents/{id}/pricing (GET)
This method returns the prices for costing the client. For example, it may tell the translation cost per word in each language.
For this to work, you need to first configure the price information for a client. See Costing / Flex for prerequisites.  Â
URL
(GET) /api/apps/wbflex/documents/{id}/pricing
PARAMETERS
URL parameters are:
id | Specify either a document ID (such as 1000) or a job ID (such as c300). | Mandatory, string |
RESULTS
A JSON object with unit price details and discounts, per language.
success | True if the pricing information is available and accessible and included. False, if the pricing information is not available or accessible. | bool |
message | Contains a user-friendly message if success is false. It gives the reason why pricing information is not available. See Costing error messages / Flex for the different messages. | string? |

Each languages element is an object with these properties:
src | The source language code. | string |

EXAMPLES
Typical price information
Here the project is configured to cost work for Translation. The unit price per language is retrieved from the client price list assigned to the project. Â
{ "success": true, "message": null, "messageCode": null, "languages": [ { "src": "en", "srct": "English (en)", "trg": "de", "trgt": "German (de)", "services": [ { "task": "TR", "taskt": "Translation", "unitprice": { "title": "Translation", "value": "EUR 0.20 per Word" }, "discounts": [ { "title": "100-110% match/rep:", "value": "-40.00%" }, { "title": "75-99% match/rep:", "value": "-10.00%" } ] } ] }, { "src": "en", "srct": "English (en)", "trg": "fr", "trgt": "French (fr)", "services": [ { "task": "TR", "taskt": "Translation", "unitprice": { "title": "Translation", "value": "EUR 0.21 per Word" }, "discounts": [] } ] } ] }
Costing for Translation and Revision
In the following example, the project is configured to cost both translation and revision work:
{ "success": true, "message": null, "messageCode": null, "languages": [ { "src": "en", "srct": "English (en)", "trg": "de", "trgt": "German (de)", "services": [ { "task": "TR", "taskt": "Translation", "unitprice": { "title": "Translation", "value": "EUR 0.20 per Word" }, "discounts": [ { "title": "100-110% match/rep:", "value": "-40.00%" } ] }, { "task": "RV", "taskt": "Revision", "unitprice": { "title": "Revision", "value": "EUR 0.08 per Word" }, "discounts": [] } ] } ] }
Costing is not enabled
If a user has no access to costing information, or if costing is not configured in the project then you will see error information:
{ "success": false, "message": "Costing is currently not activated. Please contact your translation service provider.", "messageCode": "NOT-ACTIVATED" }
