Agent Plugin & AI Integration

Connect DocTranslate.io to AI agents and automation platforms. The DocTranslate Agent Plugin exposes the same public REST API as OpenAPI + platform manifests + language SDKs, so an autonomous agent can translate documents, text, images, audio and video, run PDF tools, and fill forms — using a single API key.

Base URL & Auth

  • Base URL: https://doctranslate-api.doctranslate.io

  • Auth: header X-API-Key: <key> or Authorization: Bearer <key>

  • Get a key: DocTranslate app → Settings → API Keys. Keys start with dtl_.

Machine-readable spec (for agents)

Point your agent's tool loader at the OpenAPI spec:

The spec is generator-stamped from the live server, so parameter names, enums and status codes match production exactly.

Tools

Tool
Endpoint
Notes

translate_text

POST /v3/translate/text

Returns a task_id; poll get_result.

translate_document

POST /v3/translate/document

DOCX/PDF/PPTX/XLSX/XML/HTML. Keeps layout.

translate_image

POST /v3/translate/images

Translate text in an image.

translate_media

POST /v4/translate/audio · /v4/translate/video

Subtitle by default; set export_audio/export_video for a dubbed result (video → dubbed video end-to-end).

pdf_tool

POST /v3/pdf-tools/{tool}

29 PDF operations (convert, merge, split, rotate, compress…).

data_entry

POST /v3/data-entry

Extract fields from a document and fill a form/template.

get_upload_url

POST /v3/upload

Presigned R2 PUT for large files; then pass the returned file_key.

get_result

GET /v3/result/{task_id}

Poll async tasks; returns text + a presigned download URL.

Key parameters

  • Languages: dest_lang (target). Source hint: original_lang for text/document/image; source_lang for audio/video. Omit the source to auto-detect.

  • file_type: MIME-style enum, e.g. application/docx, application/pdf, application/pptx, application/xlsx.

  • domain / tone: exact enum strings (e.g. "Legal Documents", "Formal") — a 422 response lists the valid values.

  • Async contract: dispatch endpoints return 200 with { data: { task_id } }; poll get_result until it returns the output + download URL.

Note-Taker & Presenter (a different base URL)

meeting_notes (Note-Taker) and presenter (Presentation Video) are served by the main app, not the translation-file host. Use base URL https://www.doctranslate.io/api/v1/third-party/ with the same X-API-Key.

  • Note-Taker: POST /note-taker/audio2dialog (multipart files) -> poll GET /note-taker/audio2dialog/{task_id} for data.result.dialog_url; then POST /note-taker/dialog2meeting -> poll GET /note-taker/dialog2meeting/{task_id} for data.result.markdown and docx_url.

  • Presenter (Presentation Video): POST /v3/upload (task_type=document, PPTX/PDF) -> POST /v3/create/transcripts -> POST /v3/create/video. These two are not in the OpenAPI spec; a bad key returns 401 INVALID_API_KEY.

Quick start (cURL)

SDKs

  • JavaScript / TypeScript: @doctranslate/sdk — new DocTranslate({ apiKey }).translateDocument({ file, dest_lang })

  • Python: doctranslate — DocTranslate(api_key=...).translate_document(file=..., dest_lang="vi")

Both wrap the same endpoints and auth. See the plugin repository for full method signatures.

Supported agent platforms

The plugin ships ready-to-install manifests for:

  • Model Context Protocol (MCP) — see the MCP page.

  • Composio, Pi, and Custom GPT / OpenAI plugin — install the manifest, paste your API key, done.

Any platform that accepts an OpenAPI 3 spec can consume the API directly from the OpenAPI URL above.

Notes

  • Every tool deducts credit per completed task; a bad key returns 401.

  • Enhanced-conversion and billing are unaffected — the plugin only calls the public translation API.
