projects/{did}/documents/offline/import/init (GET)

Prepare for the subsequent import of translated Word, Excel or XLIFF files to a project. This method does a couple of things:

It creates a new files collection with its unique key. You will use this key to upload your file/s, see https://wordbee.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/API2/pages/2339176449 .
It displays the file types/extensions allowed for upload and import.
It shows the maximum number of files you can upload, as well as the maximum size limit for each file.

URL

RESULTS

The result is a JSON object. The properties you need in the context of an import are just these:

canXliff	Indicates if importing XLIFF files is authorized.	bool

files.maxFileSizeMB	The maximum size limit for each file in MiB. The default is 50.	integer
files.maxFiles	The maximum number of files you can import in one step. The default is 50.	integer
files	This object represents a new empty files collection and its contents (the files array). With the files.key you can now start uploading files. For a detailed description see the result documented in:	object

EXAMPLES

We initiate an import to a project with ID 1000. Use to find project IDs by project reference or other criteria.

GET /api/projects/1000/documents/offline/import/init

The method returns various properties:

{
    "canXliff": true,
    "canOffice": true,
    "options": {
        "commit": false,
        "writeLocked": false
    },
    "files": {
        "key": "5457027a-5c62-479a-aee1-f7dbbe3bfc28",
        "mandatory": true,
        "allowAnyFile": false,
        "maxFileSizeMB": 50,
        "maxFiles": 50,
        "parserProfileId": null,
        "parserDomains": null,
        "extensions": [
            ".xlf",
            ".xlif",
            ".xliff",
            ".xlsx",
            ".docx"
        ],
        "pageCountEnabled": false,
        "pageCountExtensions": null,
        "files": []
    }
}

Use files.key to then upload your file or your files to the “files collection”. Once the uploads are done you proceed with the actual import method.
