Integrate Studio with Censhare

Question

Dear Community, 
 We're about to switch to Studio 2022 and would like to integrate it with Censhare. Is there an existing API for that? 
 
 Thanks for your help, 
 Priscillia

 We don't have an existing integration as far as I can see. I also can't find their API documentation to see what they have. If you have it and are looking for an API for Trados Studio then you can find all the API documentation for our tools here: 
 https://developers.rws.com/ 
 I would be interested to know what you expect from the integration as this seems like an integration with Language Cloud would be a better fit anyway, but if you're just switching to Trados Studio 2022 which is already quite old perhaps you're not using Language Cloud yet? 
 I will contact Censhare and see whether there is anything we can do... but this will be a longer process than giving you an answer right now.

 In this case I think it's ok here as nobody responded to the original anyway, so nothing there to get confused with. 
 Walter Blaser said: I found this documentation of Censhare, but it does not say much about API interface: 
 Indeed... I also found this: 
 https://documentation.censhare.com/online-solutions/rest-api-overview 
 The Censhare REST API seems offers four main components: 
 
 MiddlewareApi, which is extensible and supports creating custom endpoints for various purposes; 
 DataApi, providing basic data handling for the frontend, including image manipulation and configuration endpoints; 
 AuthenticationApi, handling login, logout, password reset, and related tasks independently of the broader system; 
 Module Configuration API, which manages module-specific configurations and allows authenticated users to upload and download theming images. 
 
 There doesn't seem to be any native support for translation-specific tasks like XLIFF or TMX handling which are the basics of their solution in this regard. They only support TMX 1.4 and not 1.4b which I'm not sure about - might need a conversion - but the XLIFF 1.2 is fine. 
 I will try the contacts we have for them today as using the partner portal has been a fruitless exercise. I'm wondering just how upto date and needed this solution really is? Have you ever had any other requests or come across anyone else using it? Could be that a simple solution would be to use something like Blackbird or Make to facilitate the exchange of files between Trados and Censhare.
