Amazon Translate 2017-07-01
- Client: Aws\Translate\TranslateClient
- Service ID: translate
- Version: 2017-07-01
This page describes the parameters and results for the operations of the Amazon Translate (2017-07-01), and shows how to use the Aws\Translate\TranslateClient object to call the described operations. This documentation is specific to the 2017-07-01 API version of the service.
Operation Summary
Each of the following operations can be created from a client using
$client->getCommand('CommandName'), where "CommandName" is the
name of one of the following operations. Note: a command is a value that
encapsulates an operation and the parameters used to create an HTTP request.
You can also create and send a command immediately using the magic methods
available on a client object: $client->commandName(/* parameters */).
You can send the command asynchronously (returning a promise) by appending the
word "Async" to the operation name: $client->commandNameAsync(/* parameters */).

ImportTerminology
$result = $client->importTerminology([/* ... */]); $promise = $client->importTerminologyAsync([/* ... */]);
Creates or updates a custom terminology, depending on whether or not one already exists for the given terminology name. Importing a terminology with the same name as an existing one will merge the terminologies based on the chosen merge strategy. Currently, the only supported merge strategy is OVERWRITE, and so the imported terminology will overwrite an existing terminology of the same name.
If you import a terminology that overwrites an existing one, the new terminology take up to 10 minutes to fully propagate and be available for use in a translation due to cache policies with the DataPlane service that performs the translations.
Parameter Syntax
$result = $client->importTerminology([
'Description' => '<string>',
'EncryptionKey' => [
'Id' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
'Type' => 'KMS', // REQUIRED
],
'MergeStrategy' => 'OVERWRITE', // REQUIRED
'Name' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
'TerminologyData' => [ // REQUIRED
'File' => <string || resource || Psr\Http\Message\StreamInterface>, // REQUIRED
'Format' => 'CSV|TMX', // REQUIRED
