API Access
API Access
External programs, legacy systems, programmers using console or API clients can access the full solution functionalities using the generic APIs.
The updated description of APIs can be found at the following repositories:
- https://corporateapi2.docs.apiary.io/# (text processing),
- https://pgfile.docs.apiary.io/# (document processing) and
- http://prodb.pangeamt.com:8000/docs (anonymization)
- Pecat API (no online repo)
Pangeanic’s API is a simple RESTFul implementation where typically the requests are sent as POSTs with a json encoded body.
When handling files the content is sent or received in base-64 encoded form.
As an example, the API definition for the translation of a single sentence would be:
POST to endpoint: https://production_access_server_url:8080/NexRelay/v1/translate
Headers: Content-Type : application/json
Request Body:
{
"src":"en",
"tgt":"es",
"apikey":"your_api_key",
"engineid":"your_engine_id",
"text":[
"This is an example."
]
}
Answer Body:
[
[
{
"src": "This is an example.",
"tgt": "Esto es un ejemplo."
}
]
Both https and http endpoints are configurable in the Access Server.
Text Processing API
HOST: http://prod.pangeamt.com:8080/NexRelay/v1/
List Engines [/corp/engines]
- List All available engines [POST]
This edpoint is required to list the list of IDs of the available engines fo your APIKey
+ Request (application/json)
{
"apikey": "your-apikey-here"
}
+ Response 200 (application/json)

}
Process text [/translate]
- Process a text segment [POST]
A text segment is a number of words, processing works best if the segment is a sentence with whole semantic content.
- src and tgt are 2-letter language codes
- engine is the id (string) of the engine to be used
- glossary_id, optional, is the id (integer) of the glossary to be used
+ Request (application/json)
{
"src":"es",
"tgt":"en",
"apikey":"your-api-key-here",
"engine":"2",
"glossary_id": 1,
"text":[
"¿Cómo estás?",
"Mi perro es negro"
]
}
+ Response 200 (application/json)
[
[
{
"src": "¿Cómo estás?",
"tgt": "How are you?"
}
],
[
{
"src": "Mi perro es negro",
"tgt": "My dog is black"
}
]
]
Document Processing API
HOST: http://prod.pangeamt.com:8080/PGFile/v1
File Uploading [/sendfile]
- Send a File [POST]
Main request. Send a file to the service for translation.
The process parameters have to be included
The success response is a json with file guid.

{

}
Checking file status [/checkfile?apikey&fileid] Use /checkfile to get the processing status of a file, this is a json post where body can have three forms:
- just the apikey, the response will return info about all files being processed for the apikey.
- guid, to get info about a single file
Use a get request like:
https://server_address:server_port/PGFile/v1/checkfile?apikey=your_api_key https://server_address:server_port/PGFile/v1/checkfile?apikey=your_api_key&guid=d9b95ffb3bc347efa6a7cb90ca80ca74
The returned answer is a json list containing one json object for every file.
The important field returned for every file is the status, an integer with possible values
- 10, file is queued for process at the server - 6 or 7, file is being analyzed - 20, 30 or 40, file is being processed - 100, file processed successsfully, waiting download - 110 or 120, file downloaded - -10 or -20 (negative values), processing error
- Check the processing status of a file [GET]
+ Response 200 (application/json)

## Checking and downloading file [/retrievefile]
This is a POST request that can be used to get info about a file that is being processed and download the processed file is process has finished.
- WARNING** this endpoint is NOT safe for very big files: the file is returned in base64
encoding and requires a lot of memory at server and client side.
When file is finished a 200 response is returned with the file. If file is in processs a 200 response is returned with the status data.
Errors will generate a 401 response.
- Check and get File [POST]
+ Request (application/json)
{
"apikey": "your-api-key-here",
"guid": "1dc77dc5ba6d44828b860537dae07187"
}
+ Response 200 (application/json)
- response when file is not finished
{ "success": True, "error": {}, "status": "10", "data": {} }
# response when file is finished
{ "success": True, "error": {}, "status": "110", "data": { "guid": "d74b06fd52434ad2bfbe82ebbff96464", "fileType": "txt", "filename": "test.txt", "file": "U2VlIHRoaW5ncyB0byBkbywgcmVzdGF1cmFudHMsIGFuZCBob3RlbHMNCg==" } }
+ Response 401 (application/json)
{ "success": False, "error": { "statusCode": 401, "code": 6, "message": "Invalid GUID" }, "data": {} }
Downloading file [/download?apikey&fileid]
Simple get request to retrieve a file. The get parameters are:
- apikey - fileid, the file GUID
The file is returned as a stream (similar to a call to wget)
- Send a File [GET]
+ Response 200
Anonymization API
Anonymize a file [/anonymize/xliff]
