I have used the web admin interface to change quite a few Discourse strings. Out of expediency\[1\] I have ignored the non-English versions. This means, of course, that they’re out of sync.
In Fedora, we use Weblate for community-powered translations. (See [https://translate.fedoraproject.org/](https://translate.fedoraproject.org/)). I’d love to hook this up, ideally so that there’s an entirely automatic workflow where when a string is updated in English via the admin interface, it is sent to Weblate, and when there is a translation, it comes back.
What’s the best way to accomplish this?

Implementing an integration using our API where you would:
- Poll Discourse for new overrides (no webhooks)
- Push new translations from Weblate into your Discourse site.
That’s the preliminary rundown. We’re looking into quantifying the existing limitations, as our current API returns only a fixed amount of translation overrides. Which means we would need to make changes to that API endpoint to make it work.

Polling seems fine — translation won’t be instant anyway. But does the polling _thing_ need to keep track in some way? It’s nice when it can be stateless…

There’s no need to keep track of anything on your site. You should be able to implement it stateless.
- For polling, you need to send a `GET` request to the following path on your site:
`/admin/customize/site_texts.json?locale=en&overridden=true&page=0`
- Updating a translation override works by sending a `PUT` request to the following path:
`/admin/customize/site_texts/`
Essentially you need to use the same API calls that the Customize Text admin interface uses.
