I would like to be able to fetch glossary terms and glossary translations via the [Transifex API](https://developers.transifex.com/reference/api-introduction).

The API currently has no endpoints relating to glossaries. Ideally, similar endpoints should exist for glossary terms and glossary translations as already exist for [resource strings](https://developers.transifex.com/reference/get_resource-strings) and [resource translations](https://developers.transifex.com/reference/get_resource-translations). This would enable the translation and review status for glossary terms to be queried or updated individually or in bulk.

Failing that, it should at least be possible to download and upload [glossary CSV files](https://help.transifex.com/en/articles/6230893-uploading-a-glossary) via the API.

I would use these feature to collect analytics about the glossary. For example, to determine how complete it is in each language. Or to determine which translators have used the glossary most frequently, so that I can make them reviewers, etc.

It would also be useful to sychronize glossaries between related projects and organizations that I control, or to use the glossary terms and translations for machine learning.

Thanks!

Hello @liezek,

I’m Antonis from the Transifex Customer Success team. I hope you’re well.

This feature hasn’t been implemented yet, but we have recently brought it back to our Product team’s attention since it’s a popular request.

We hope to have more news in the near future, and when it becomes available, we will communicate it to you.

Please let me know if that helps.
