File import for a Memory

Imports common translation memory or termbase file formats to a specific LILT memory. Currently supported file formats are *.tmx, *.sdltm, *.sdlxliff(With custom Filters), ‘*.xliff’, and *.tmq for TM data; *.csv and *.tbx for termbase data. Request parameters should be passed as JSON object with the header field LILT-API.

Example CURL command to upload a translation memory file named my_memory.sdltm in the current working directory:

  curl -X POST https://api.lilt.com/v2/memories/import?key=API_KEY \
    --header "LILT-API: {\"name\": \"my_memory.sdltm\",\"memory_id\": 42}" \
    --header "Content-Type: application/octet-stream" \
    --data-binary @my_memory.sdltm

Example CURL command to upload a translation memory file named my_memory.sdlxliff in the current working directory, with Custom Filters based on SDLXLIFF fields, conf_name which maps to, percentage, and whether we should ignore unlocked segments.

  curl -X POST https://api.lilt.com/v2/memories/import?key=API_KEY \
    --header "LILT-API: {\"name\": \"my_memory.sdlxliff\",\"memory_id\": 12,\"sdlxliff_filters\":[{\"conf_name\": \"Translated\", \"percentage\": 100, \"allow_unlocked\": false}]"}" \
    --header "Content-Type: application/octet-stream" \
    --data-binary @my_memory.sdlxliff
